We've got a couple of birdfeeders in the backyard and it seems that the birdies knock more bird food on the ground then they actually eat, but this turned out to be not such a bad thing. Some of the food contains sunflower seeds and it seems that now we have quite a few beautiful sunflowers growing right under the birdfeeders! And it seems like the bees are enjoying them as much as we are ~ earlier today Vic saw a chubby little bee buzzing around this sunflower and he was covered in pollen! Lately we've started seeing a few more butterflies in the backyard, too. Next year we're going to plant more butterfly-friendly flowers along the fence. I'm glad that Vic & I aren't the only ones enjoying the the backyard ~ we've got bees, butterflies, squirrels and birdies to play with every day. It's great!
