Daisy found herself a snake. Two, actually. One in the garden, the other in the forest. She urged them to go on their way.
I found a big, black beautiful bug. I think it is a form of cicada, but I'm still working on it.
The deerflies are awful, the patched on the back of my hat work. I wrap the patch on a stick, and let the goldfish eat them.
Orchid cactus blooming again!
The pearly moth is: Diachrysia balluca. AKA Green-patched Looper

Oh, those deer flies! This is why we confine our visits to the friend's cottage to late August and beyond. And winter.
Deer flies are the devil! I've always been curious to know if those patches on hats work. Now I have my answer. -Jenn
Feeding deer flies to the goldfish! What a satisfying recycle manoeuvre!

Too many flies!! Is that what we call a red currant bush? and snakes, well done Daisy.
LOL! I LOVE the patch on the back of your hat! I am going to do this for my chickens! Though I doubt the bugs are as thick here in NY as what you have.
Your orchid cactus is gorgeous. sigh... Yes, summer is the time for bugs too.
nature's paradise right there in your own backyard -- wow!
Now that's one puny garter snake!
And what fun you had and delightful photos ~ ^_^
You wonder what the snake thinks of the cat!
