Garden time nature study

This garden time nature study happened back in August. Unfortunately nature studies have been few and far between lately. There is so much to do, and so little time lately that we haven't been able to get it all in. But, hoping to get out more soon.

We headed over to a local garden that we love to see if we could do one of the challenges from Handbook of Nature Study blog's August grid. We chose Find a spiral in the garden.

So, April was off with the camera. It is amazing to find patterns in nature. They are everywhere! Finding a spiral is usually pretty easy. Here's April's first find...

Then she just got some amazing shots. Like this hummingbird!

 I think this is lavender. So pretty!

 And, this honeybee. She really knows how to capture on the camera.

 Here's another spiral.

 And, of course the water of the babbling brook that always provides some soothing sound.
