I Seem to Have More Butterflies this Year & the Neighbors have a Bumper Crop of Veggies

Every time I walk near the butterfly bush, at least a dozen of them flutter upward. 

There is always a humming bird moth or two as well.

I have seen humming birds, too. I just have not caught one on camera yet. While I am excited by all the flying pretties, DH is excited because he is about to pick his first tomato.

He has four plants and they are all doing well. I forgot what these little ones are called. That is the extent of our vegetable garden. :)  Fortunately my neighbor has a bumper crop of delicious cukes and has been keeping us supplied for the past three weeks.  Neighbor #2 came over yesterday and said they will be leaving for a week and could we please go over and help ourselves to their tomatoes and cukes as they don't want them to go to waste while they are away.  Of course we are happy to help.
