Where we live

 

Some scenes from around the house

This is the East side flower bed, a row of Azaleas.  I replaced the black plastic border with
a concrete post border.

These pictures are the front and back beds.  I changed the flowers in the front recently. The back
still has the Amarillo bed.  The Orange tree has its first fruit after five years.

These are our Sandhill Cranes.  They are an endangered species worldwide, however there
seems to be plenty of them around Lutz.  Since the fence was put in, they are not in our yard
as often, but walk by on a regular basis.

Our most recent wildlife addition is a Gopher Tortoise, a protected species.  This one decided to create a small cave in the sand.  Pretty cool!
