My h just made one for me. I am just worried I put it in the wrong place. People said South facing wall but maybe their south facing wall isn't as hot as mine. SOuth in the north is north in the south!

Do you have a water source? Our fountain has made a big difference here for birds and insects. Despite less than 2" of rain this monsoon in Maricopa (and the death of our passion flower vines which were Gulf Fritillary magnets) we're still having a nice butterfly season. Also, I've been working on an 'attracting birds and butterflies' post on my blog...look for it in a week or two.Mikehttp://blog.naturesarchive.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269929186047281311.post-33095026613995714992010-09-23T19:39:16.889-07:002010-09-23T19:39:16.889-07:00Love the photo of the dragonfly!!!!!

I ...I have found that in time, everything changes. I bet one day you will have an inundation of all sorts of birds and bees! Wonder where they are hanging out at this time? Hmmmmm...it is all a mystery to me. Each day I look out at my tire garden, I am surprised by some new thing. Not a whole lot of butterflies, but a whole breakout of dragonflies will happen, and last only a short while, and then gone again! So many comings and goings...if I don't watch constantly...seems there are more GOINGS! LOL.<br />Hope all is well with you and hubby. Your flowering cactus photos are beautiful! The ORANGE dragonfly is awesome...I love that color, and to see it in a dragonfly is just exquisite!!!<br />Have a good week Aiyana!!!<br />xoxo- JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402220963886597754noreply@blogger.com
