Don't think I ever uploaded this video of horrible blackbird. Horrible blackbird harassed us for a few weeks morning to night because he hated our lovely sleepy indoor cat.

I tried to make friends but he just wanted to shout at Mo cat. Swoop at the window. We had a little moment where he was eating bugs off the path next to me while I was crouched down doing some weeding, made a cute little "boopboop" sort of sound, but then he went right back to yelling at us so whatever. Horrible blackbird.

Been playing Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime on the DS. It has puns, and slimes, and mainly, though not exclusively, puns about slimes.

It's, like... a classic Zelda game but Dragon Quest themed and has a lot of giant tank battles. The main enemy is like, the platypus mafia, if that appeals. So yeah. Tanks! Slimes! Game!

Anyway yeah that's how I'm spending my time.

This is ghostberry!

It is a shrub that grows and grows and spreads everywhere and I kind of feel like I'm constantly keeping it under control, but the bees love it so much, so I can't ever get rid of it. Beeeees.

Also I get to say we've got ghostberries in our garden which is something.

My plan was to photograph a bee on our newly-opened orange sunflower, but bee wasn't interested, so I followed it around the nasturtiums instead.

Grew this large vegetable type object. Well, I mean, I assisted the plant in order for it to do so.

Didn't grow it myself that would be uncomfortable.

Nightbugs! Katydid and grasshopper. Both of them would probably prefer not to have bright lights shone in their eyes.

I also tried to photograph the horrorspider, but it disappeared after the first blurry attempt. Horrorspider.
