Nature invasion

There is a lot of nature going on around my house.  First of all, there are birds that are constantly building nests on our house -

They make a lot of mess, but they are interesting to watch - especially how they dive bomb you anytime you go close to the nest. 

Then, there is the garden that my husband and daughter are tending-

We had our first harvest of cucumbers, squash and beans this weekend.  I failed to take pictures before everyone gobbled them up. 

And every Spring there is a ladybug invasion, which I don't mind -

My kids think this picture of my skin close-up is really gross.  But I think it is amazing how it looks like my skin is made of tiny triangles all connected together.
