Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

I ran into my friend, Carlie on my walk on Wednesday and again yesterday.  Mom says that I am over the top nutty when I meet up with her and her dad~

We found Toadflax~
At the end of Keri's driveway, we discovered she had planted Zinnias.   They remind mom so much of her Nonna, as Nonna always planted all colors of Zinnias in the summer at her house.
We discovered Balloon flowers near a mailbox~
The red Clematis is so pretty and so full!
We are seeing quite a bit of Yucca this year and it is such a tall plant!
Do you see the bunny underneath the Magnolia bush?   I want so badly for mom to drop my leash so I can chase him but she won't.  SpoilSport!
Happy Friday!

Love ya lots♥
Duke

    and how sweet that you have a special friend ...

  2. We have a teenage bunny that sits on our front sidewalk right in front of the front door windows. It makes us lose our minds and Mom has to sneak out and chase it away because we are so crazy! Pretty flowers you found too :)

  6. Duke do you have a case of Puppy Love for Carlie? She is a beauty and I expect she knows how handsome to you are too but she is being coy!!
    Pretty blooms for us today too. That bunny best realizes just how lucky he is that your mom is strong!!

  8. Java Bean: "Ayyy, Mama and Dada never let us chase the bunnies either! We are just trying to help the bunnies out. How are they supposed to learn evasive maneuvers if nobody chases them?!"

  10. What beautiful flowers this week Duke. Our Mama is also fond of Zinnias...they remind her of her childhood in NJ.

  12. How nice that you got to meet up with Carlie!!! She is very pretty.

    We saw some big red balloon flowers on our walks today. Mom should snap a photo of them. You always find such pretty blooms.

  14. Moms can be such spoilsports, especially when one is a puppy, but we love your flowers and your beautiful friend Carlie.

  15. parlance here, Peppa's mum. I've always loved the plants you and the dogs discover on your walks, and that toadflax is a new one on me. I think it's gorgeous.

  17. We love the flowers they are so pretty and a real sight of summer. Although it has been very wet here in the UK the plants and flowers are loving it of course so that is one consolation. It is great that you love meeting other doggy friends, it makes walks so much easier. Coco loves meeting other dogs too. I think your Mom is quite right not to let your leash go as I am sure she would have a time trying to get you back, just like Coco. Love & Hugs, Susie & Coco xx
