I found this growing in my garden today. It’s definitely not something I planted. I have no idea what it is but I like it.

Orchids

The orchid I planted on a tree last year is blooming again. The roots have now penetrated enough for it to stick to the tree by itself.



My neighbor’s orchid is also blooming.

There were two raccoons by my building this afternoon. I saw something moving and at first I thought it was a cat until I saw the tail.

My variegated ginger is flowering for the first time since I’ve had it for almost 2 years. It recently got crushed when a tree was taken down, but after I cut away most of it, new growth is coming back.

Lizard hunt

Lizard hunt, originally uploaded by mike3k.

One of my cats started making a big fuss by the patio, jumping at the window. A few seconds later, Midnight walked into the living room, proudly carrying a lizard in his mouth.

He walked over to me and dropped the lizard at my feet, one of those things cats do that’s both cute & gross at the same time. Unfortunately the lizard was still alive and it got away.

Midnight kept stalking the lizard until it ran behind a piece of furniture. After staring at the empty wall for a few minutes, Midnight finally gave up.

Meanwhile, Cody was sleeping. He finally woke up when the excitement was over.
