Welcome to my blog! My name is Esther and I'm so happy you are here. I'm an avid nature photographer and a daydreaming thinker. My posts revolve around photos of nature's beauty, homeschooling adventures with my 2 kids, sporadic reflections on my child's heart condition, Bible reading reflections, gardening feats, and other mish mash things. Hopefully you'll leave encouraged, pensive, or smiling at the simple things of life. Thank you for stopping by and hope you'll find some interesting posts to read!
I like these trumpet flowers 😀 😀

Beautiful! There is one in the Park a block away from my house – someone planted it in the “volunteer garden” many years ago and it is huge with many blooms … I know the “trumpets” attract hummingbirds but I must go there too early in the day for hummingbirds and butterflies. Going to make more trips there this year to get pics.

Isn’t the name appropriate for the flower?! It’s a pretty plant that climb and the flowers are large. The hummingbirds could fit in the whole flower; they must love it!

Yes – beautiful flowers and what if they are upside down in the “trumpet” and get stuck? I didn’t write the post but I took pictures of the trumpet vine on the fence my neighbor and I share because I cut it down on my side every year as it climbs up his wall and grows on the wall. But last year I kept it and it grew out of control and I kept moving the hummingbird feeders farther away as it was “reaching out” to them.

This plant is an active climber. If you want a climbing vine, this would be the plant to get.
You make a good point…what if a hummingbird stuck in there?! It didn’t cross my mind.
Birds are out and about these days; busy building their nests.
