Just an Ordinary Day

The last of my daylilies has started to bloom.  I have it recorded as "Betsy" but I can't find any daylily with that name.  This is the first time it has bloomed for me, so I think I'll go on a search and see if I can find out if it is "Betsy Something" or "Something Betsy."

The chipmunks are busy, gathering food for the coming winter.  I count seven.  No wonder the sunflower seeds disappear so quickly.

One little chipmunk, who has his home by my back steps, apparently decided, however, that he needed a snack.  He left this little pile of husks behind.

I didn't notice until I downloaded this picture that there were little ants crawling among the husks, looking for scraps.  You may have to click on this picture to be able to see them.

And, wonder of wonders, Leon is awake.  Though, I think he only woke up when I went out on the porch to take his picture.

I hope that, even if you are having an ordinary day, it is a lovely one.
