Here are some pics of my pollinator garden near my SFG...not seeing hardly any butterflies and bees at all this year...maybe two non-bumble bees in the last two weeks or so. Seeing plenty of lacewings, ladybugs, and parasitic wasps.

purple coneflower (I noticed the little spider hiding after I downloaded the pics from the camera)

Jeeze, landarch Nice shots! What are you shooting with? I need me a new camera, amongst other things.

I use a simple Sony Cybershot with some special features...I think the setting I like the most is called "Mini"...it makes your shots look like they're a part of a miniature model with a really narrow area of focus...then I just crop for interest.

Nice shots! I need a new camera. I have a hard time getting closeups with my camera. Never used to. It's about 8 years old now.

Those are stunning shots Landarch. You have both the skills for photography and for gardening.

I can't get over how vibrant the colors are. Your pollinators will have a ball in you flower beds!
