He is getting big, this goldfish.
I'm so happy to see my lilies!
'Clover' is quite keen on my garden blossoms. (Thank you Yam, you are wonderful at naming them.)
I think I've foiled her! (Spoke too soon, she's been in and eaten the tops of some hostas.)
Clover was keen on watching the cats sitting on the deck. She began hoof stomping to warn them off! I clapped, and chuffed at her, and tried to make her move on. She was reluctant. Those cats bear watching! The cats ignored her.
Robin update
Things are hopping. I can hear both the phoebe and the song sparrows singing again. They must be doing a 2nd brood, as well as the Robins.
There are still three little beaks to fill. I snapped the photo with the door closed. Momma had some lunch for them. I really should wash the glass door. Opening the door, momma hesitated, then flew off. She seems to understand that - door closed = no worries.

LDD Caterpillars
The LDD caterpiglies have done in my spruce. It pains me to look at it! It's much worse than when it had spruce budworms (2017). The tree is beginning to grow over the bird bath, as well as the goldfish pond. I don't know if I should trim it, or what.
They've almost all morphed to moths. You can see them flitting all around us. LDD moths
Many trees are beginning to grow back. This is one tree in late June [LDD caterpillars –July 1st], Vs. July 9th.
Some amusement
Soccer and tennis have been fun. We were very proud of our Canadians who made it a good long way in Wimbledon.
I had fun watching the planes last weekend. Airplanes Sunday
Ya think you had a bad day?! JB went into town and saw this incident coming and going. (We really need to upgrade our dashcam!) incident
