A New Month Has Started

September has arrived. Makes me wonder where the time goes. We have a lot of sunshine again today. Was out filling up the bird bath and changing hummingbird feeders. They are buzzing around as they love the heat. Soon we will have change in the air. Fall is just around the corner and I am ready. Football season has started. Festivals are going on all around. A nice time of the year. Lantana in the photo continues blooming for now. The garden also enjoys the sunshine. I snapped it early before the heat arrived. Plans out there anyone for this fist day of September?

Just came back inside. A little overcast now. Rain would be good.

@CarolDM They said we might get rain, but it's not likely from what I'm seeing. Are you in the path of Hurricane Dorian?

It's hard to believe that September is already here. I haven't really done much today. Mostly just relaxed.

This summer passed by fast and fall is definitely in the air. It was 65 degrees today, on our back porch. This is such a beautiful season and your photo is gorgeous!

@CarolDM We had a few days up around 90 in July, but that was the extent of our hot weather.

We used to grow lantana. It wasn't popular on the farm as it's poisonous to stock and Mum was always worried the pet lambs would nibble on it. It also spreads rapidly.

That is a beautiful Lantana. I wish I have the yellow color of Lantana in my tropical garden.

Very nice photo, and yes...time goes by too fast! Fall is a nice time of year, just not looking forward to winter. I visited my great-grandma on the first day of September!
