September Scavenger Hunt via Lilly My Cat

I can't believe that September is saying goodbye and it's going to be October!  It's always a joy to join in with Greenthumb at Made with Love for her monthly scavenger hunts.  And, as always, I enjoy meeting new friends.  This month I took all my photos from my garden.   It was a very warm September morning when I took these pictures (with the exception of one of them).   I hope you will enjoy.

Woven design in this little table reminded me of my current needlepoint project...

Repeating blue tiles on the barbeque area...my succulents love this sunny area...

Greedy black crows ate all our figs from our fig tree...here's one lonely fig left...

Flower of bird of paradise.  I have lots of these and they do very well in the hot, dry weather...

Curly center of my sago palm tree that has grown huge...the new fronds are so amazing when they appear...

Adventures today when we moved the garbage can and found this gecko who had  lost his tail...

Line of the backyard fence...luckily it's narrowly spaced so Lilly can't fit through the fence...

Mesmerizing ripples from the pool this morning while the pump was running...

Triangle shapes from my home's chimneys...

Dreamy evening sky with lights reflecting on the pool ...

Day(time) at it's brightest with blue skies and palms fronds showing all their splendor...

Whatever you want - I just wanted Lilly to smile for the photo this morning but she is so stubborn...




I hope you have enjoyed these photos.  I look forward to seeing what you have shared.

My best to each of you,

Pat

  6. Hi Pat This is my first attempt today and I love the selection you have made for all the words. Lilly is gorgeous but just is not playing ball with you and your camera today. Love the ripples in the pool shot and that wasa great shot for greedy although a bit sad you only have 1 fig for yourself! It is wonderfulto see how different people see and shoot the images for the word prompts.

  13. Lovely to see blue skies and that pool! It's miserable and raining here.
    I love figs, shame those crows only left you one and your cat photo made me laugh...mine was just the same. x

  14. Lilly is gorgeous! Lots of beautiful blues weaving through your photos - love the ripples and the bird of paradise, such an amazing looking flower. Feel for you, losing the figs! Adore them and would so like to have a fig tree, but don't think there'd be much chance of edible fruit with our climate!
