The second looks familiar, but I can remember the name :-) If it's the one I'm thinking of, the colour of the flowers depends on the acidity of the soil.

That second one looks like a hydrangea. I have one in my front yard that my dad gave me when I first moved in. I love them

The gardens still look pretty though some of the flowers seem to be showing winter wear. It is nice to see the seasonal changes, though.

None of these plants look familiar to me, and that is what I like about them. The best part of exploring nature is finding new and unfamiliar things.

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
