Gordon and the bean stalk

Gordon and the bean stalk

Hey gardening friends, do you know what this is (the first 4 pics)? It’s a tall plant with tiny white flowers that turn into the “fruit” below. Those turn into dark purple/black berries. The birds go bonkers for them and that’s how my friend Gordon, thinks that they got into his backyard in the first place. You can see the stems are quite substantial. These were all taken with my Droid Incredible using Camera360 Ultimate. If the filters are throwing you off, I can upload the original pics too.

ZOMG, Kestrels in my backyard

ZOMG, Kestrels in my backyard

I thought I had one kestrel in my backyard and I posted him/her yesterday. There was a lot of chatter all day. So I grabbed my camera after walking the dog and ZOMG you see the results. It looks like a family. Two adults feeding two offspring. Simply beautiful, stunning, and a real treat to capture. Now I need to convince my wife that I need a better camera :~)

Promise -Ben Howard

Promise -Ben Howard

And meet me there, with bundles of flowers,

We’ll wade through the hours of cold

Winter she’ll howl at the walls,

Tearing down doors of time.

Shelter as we go…

And promise me this:

You’ll wait for me only,

Scared of the lonely arms

That surface, far below these birds

And maybe, just maybe I’ll come home

Who am I, darling to you?

Who am I,

To tell you stories of mine

Who am I?

Who am I, darling for you?

Who am I

To be your burden in time, lonely

Who am I, to you?

Who am I, darling for you?

Who am I

To be your burden

Who am I, darling to you?

Who am I?

I come alone here

(be patient the intro is very soft and subtle)

Ben Howard – Promise Lyrics

I heard this on House MD a while ago. Enjoy the flowers around my house. Not as impressive as Rajini Rao so I cheated and added my wife’s orchids and African violet from indoors.
