September is the first Autumn month, and a long warm Summer is drawing to its close. We’ve had a glorious time – a bit too hot for me, but bright, cooler mornings and evenings.
We have spent extra much time at our summer house with children and grandchildren. Precious days to remember as cold and darkness is arriving.
We haven’t had any rain for two months, so my garden is dry and most flowers are gone. These are some that still were here a couple of weeks ago, but most of them have now given in.
I have been waiting for the lovely hummingbird hawkmoth – and yesterday it arrived! No pictures though – but I hope to see it again another day this week. Have a great day!

lovely colour rose Leya. We are opposite here and still in the middle of winter. It’s been such a cold and rainy one too, very unusual for Perth.
Thanks, Ali! And we had an unusually warm summer. Too little rain.
Hi Ann-Christine
We had the first rain for months the last two days – but now it’s sunny and warm again. Hanne-Dina is always looking for the hummingbird hawkmoth, too. They are so quick that they are hard to catch with your camera.
We wish you a wonderful weekend

We were lucky too a couple of days ago, and today again we had some rain. We are grateful for what we get! Thank you – wish you a lovely weekend as well.♥♥♥♥
Wonderful blooms in your garden.
Thank you, Rebecca!
Ann-Christine, thank you for bringing a smile to my face with your beautiful flowers this morning.
💚Bringing a smile means good news!💚
marvellous floral images, what a beauty that Rose is…. And looking forward to seeing images of the hummingbird moth!
Thank you, Sue! I haven’t seen the moth since…
Oh! What a shame
Properly beautiful summer images.
Thank you, Margaret! I hope you are having a lovely late summer as well!
We are. Said she, looking out of the window at the (much needed) driving rain …
Yes! We got our showers two days ago! So happy – and the garden too!
Beautiful gallery of insects and flowers 😀
Thank you, Brian! Nobody can match your abundance!
Just the luck of where you live

Outstanding photos! …and I love the hummingbird moths! I discovered them 2 or 3 years ago when we had a very wet summer and the caterpillars were EVERYWHERE! Now each summer I look all over for them. Super dry here too, and so far no hummingbird moths 😢
I hope you will get to see them again! My friend hasn’t showed up today…
I will always keep watching for them!
Love the hanging red flowers that make me think of ballet dancers about to twirl.
Thank you – I love them too💚
Beautiful flowers and images!

Amazing blooms and macros!

Beautiful garden! Hummingbird hawkmoth visited. congratulations.
Yellow roses symbolize friendship and joy. They are also used to represent those feelings that are associated with friendship such as warmth, delight, gladness, caring, and affection. These blooms were once used to communicate jealousy, during the Victorian era. Today, the meaning of yellow roses has evolved to represent more cheerful concepts that match their bright color. These blooms can be used to say a number of things such as ”remember me,” ”good luck,” or ”welcome back,” making them a great gift for a friend who needs a little positivity. You can also order yellow roses for your wedding flowers to add a little bit of sunshine and friendship to your big day! Lately, yellow roses have been popular in retro and vintage-style floral arrangements, often combined with daisies and wildflowers for a nostalgic feel. Pair this rose color with sunflowers to create a vibrant arrangement…from internet sources
