Happy Sunday, everyone!

Ready for her closeup.

...with a rather large lunch!

These birds are quite difficult to photograph since they rarely sit still for longer than a second! Small shot due to major cropping.

Just got lucky!

Give them all an extra hug!

Here's one of our sweet boys:

One day they are green, and then a few days later they are red and have purple flowers coming out!



(This plant is only 4" high.)

I'm just curious. We are in western NC and we kill between 3 and 12 a day here, year round. They are everywhere in the house. I read that they started in PA but obviously they have spread. We are so sick of seeing them on kitchen counters, on a table next to a cocktail, on the ceiling over the bed. It's great they are harmless and don't bite, but they are everywhere, and the name is apt. Anyone else have these pests? Please don't flame me if you love them and keep them as pets.

with that constant rocking back and forth. I may vomit.
