Visitors to my garden

One of the things about organic gardening is encouraging wildlife.

They help keep the pests in check and offer their services free of charge.

I think the added benefit is to stand and marvel at the Creator, Father God, as we look on His majesty through creation.

This week I have noticed an increase in White Eyes. They eat aphids off my tomato plants and other little insects. Their delightful tweets can be heard early morning.



We also found a Cape Dwarf Chameleon on our granadilla vine...amazing creatures that can make me stand for hours and watch them go on their slow jerky way.



And this morning, we were woken to the honking of two Egyptian Geese on our roof.
