Looking Southeast on St. Kitts. Nevis is just beyond. And in the far distance, the island of Montserrat.

Thank you both! Great picture, Gazania! I thought it was, but wasn't sure. I had the greatest pleasure of seeing one when I was in Florida a few years ago! We have some very amazing birds in this country. I wish being a bird watcher was a paying job!!! LOL

I concur with the orange butterfly weed. Even today, when I was out looking for aphids (I discovered way too many - nuts!), I noticed that some of the plants are calling it quits even before they have completely bloomed! Rats. My neighbor has some and she has zero idea what it is and how to take care of it. It blooms like crazy. Ain't gardening fun?

I'm glad that no one bashed Bud catching a bird. I am totally against people who let their cats loose to roam free in the neighbourhood, killing birds, pooping in flowerbeds and being at risk for their own lives. But Bud was on his balcony, surveying his kingdom. I'd love to know how he even caught the bird. Whether it was on the floor, on the railing, I don't know. He's on a partial raw diet......he won't transition to raw completely, and he does like chicken. He won't eat the beef, pork, kangaroo, turkey, rabbit meats, but he does love our meat that I prepare. Beef, pork, chicken, hamburger, etc. I gave him and Roxie a smelt that was cut up, and this was his reaction......
