Wild blooms abound, wild creatures found
Wild blooms and wild life around my little spot.
I have been so impressed with nature's bouquet recently. It began, of course, with the bluebonnets and now continues with the thistles, Mexican Hats, Indian Blankets (aka firewheels) and prairie verbena, just to name a few in the wilds behind my house. I couldn't resist the shots of the Tiger Swallowtail on the thistle.
And today in the compost heap, my husband found this beauty - I think it's a rhinoceros beetle larvae. It was nasty - the width and length of my pointer finger! Not a creature I might want in the garden, but it's welcome to stay in the compost and work there!
