    Thanks John! This is high praise from you indeed. I don't think I would delete my shots tho':D After all it was some of your shots from earlier in the year that got me inspired to work on them more/harder.

    Thanks Skippy.

    The plant in the shot you like is Hypericum 'Albury Purple'. The bug, well I'll leave the real bug shots to all of you, did think it turned out ok. Glad you like my little logo a Dgrin friend did that up for me, nice of them.

    Always glad to see you stop by, thank you!

    That Evil Beetle
    Japanese Beetles, ruining gardens and crops for nearly 100 years now (Of course, they're no Gypsy Moth). Plus, they bite. The first sight of one of these wonderful creatures was how we knew summer was here.

    If you notice a lot of them around, I recommend a couple of these, they're highly effective:

    Thanks for the advice. So far, knock wood, we have never had a real problem with them. We also have a gang of natural predators, grackles, cardinals etc...Gooo birds:-)
