The Last Day Lily for 2021

Was out trying to get photos of the rose of sharon bees and blooms. And still dodging the bully mockingbird. On my next trip outside I will have a hat on, to protect my head for sure. Noticed this yellow day lily. I thought they were all gone for this year. I am pretty sure this will be the last bloom for this season. Snapped a photo as it made me smile. Sharing another little thing with you to enjoy hopefully.

@CarolDM The mums do this also. They blossom once, then they're gone until next summer.

That mockingbird likes you. Smart to wear a hat

I love all lilies, so beautiful. Thanks for sharing yours with us.

We have tiger lilies that grow wild here in my yard. I’d love some yellow lilies. Lily stargazers are my favorite flower followed by hibiscus and peonies.

Those are done blooming as well. I love those too. The rose of sharon is in full bloom, all three bushes are loaded.

What is it about your hair that makes the bird think it's food?

Have no idea. I had just put coconut scented conditioner. I was guessing.

@CarolDM Thanks! Meanwhile, it's too cold and rainy winter. I'm cozy indoors.

@everwonderwhy I would love winter more often here. The summer heat is so miserable.

I have called him many names. But he doesn't seem to listen. I wish you luck with your spring blooms.

Beautiful shot. The mockingbird is doing his job -- eating those rotten Japanese beetles.

He actually can't get to the ones in the bag. He sits and waits for them to fly toward the bag and catches them. Smart bird actually.
