@Walks_At_Night  Hey Walks, I finally got a handle on that large bird that was circling above me awhile back.  It is a McDonnell Douglas KC-10A Extender.  I tend to think it was being put into use for firefighting purposes.  There were no forest fires at the time so I guess they were making practice runs.  I tracked it coming out of the Sacramento, California area.  I shot the above photo as it was making some more passes, well over a month ago.  Thanks for telling me about that flight tracker app.

I was walking down an EllGab Garden ally when I spotted this strange sight.

Some roses blooming through a fence.

And a rather tightly constructed fence at that.

Nice, @FISH.  You took a picture of a historic cloud.  Which reminds me, I like to reflect on how even the mightiest of hurricanes will eventually be reduced in size, to where it is nothing more than a faint breeze across the face, or it has only enough strength to move a downed leaf a few inches.  And then it's gone.

Elsa was a wonderful thing when she passed through here. Hours and hours of a steady, light rain. No real damage in this area.  My Fig trees loved it!

I was walking around Rockville and stumbled across these giraffes munching upon the trees.

We have several bottle brush trees in our yard but I don’t think I have ever seen an actual bottle bush. Until today.

@Rikki Gins last night, another crazy storm hit Philadelphia. It was a mighty storm. This morning, my garden looked happy. Your words touched my brain.

The gardens love these storms.
