A Post in Two Parts

 Part One: Monster Plant


The bleeding heart has grown to be a monster.


It's crowding the peonies.


And the lilies.



Once it stops blooming I will have to trim it back some.

Part Two: Hummingbirds

As I was photographing the bleeding heart this hummingbird came by.




It's not scared so long as I stand still.


I sat on the deck then and watched it. At one point there was movement in the bleeding heart and the hummingbird was sticking its beak into the blossoms.

They are so much fun to watch.
