FOTD – June 20 – FUCHSIA
Three squirrels were inspecting my deck today. I got the feeling they have NOT forgotten. They are just waiting for me to put the feeders up. I didn’t know that had such good memories.
Meanwhile, the fuchsia are growing and are not being crushed by squirrels and birds.
I have a feeling that none of the critters will forget. We’ll put the feeders up and it will be full throttle ATTACK MODE!
I’m considering filling the 10 pound feeder twice a week and in between, they will have to find other food to eat. They seem to be doing fine. When winter comes, I’ll up the anti, but while food is everywhere, they can forage.

They are gorgeous, Marilyn. Such an amazing colour – my favourite. I love the image of squirrels waiting in the wings for a good feed. 🙂

They always have a purple “heart,” but the external flowers range from with to a very deep purple. They are ALL beautiful. Oh, they also come in bright red and any shade of purple.
