It's the most wonderful time of the year!! Can't wait to see what I come up with for dinner after picking my first harvest from the garden. Fall better stay away so I can get more growing time, this years rain put everything behind.... #freshfood #offthevine #healthyeats #greenthumb #gardens #garden #gardening #nature #gardenlife #plants #gardensofinstagram #gardener #gardenlove #mygarden #plantsofinstagram #green #instagarden #summer #tomatoes #eggplant #basil #peppers #chives #colourful #delicious #canada #alberta #canada

Inaabiwin is the Anishinaabemowin word for lightning I'm practicing my storm photography/editing, and the other night we had a short but beautiful storm. Unfortunately the best bolts occurred as I was walking out of the house, but I'm still super happy with how this one turned out. Love a good light show.... #lightning #storm #thunderstorm #nature #thunder #sky #clouds #rain #weather #naturephotography #lightningstrike #photooftheday #landscape #instagood #lightningbolt #stormclouds #lightningstorm #alberta #brazeaucounty #imagesofalberta #imagesofcanada #countryliving #ruralalberta #anishinaabemowin #learning #indigenouslanguages

Someone had a tough start at life, found this little 1 eyed frog in my garden. Hopefully he sticks around, after I moved the planter he's living in, he's handy in the garden for eating pests. #frog #frogsofinstagram #nature #amphibian #amphibians #amphibiansofinstagram #froggy #wildlife #naturephotography #animal #gardening #gardenlife #nature #gardens #mygarden #gardeners #instagarden #greenthumb #oneeyedfrog #oneeye #picoftheday #mothernature #motherearth

Chives are great for attracting pollinators to your garden. Common Chives have pink blooms that open early, providing food in the spring when not much else is flowering. This little guy was enjoying some of the chives growing in my garden. This hardy plant is easy to grow and delicious to cook with. #bee #bees #nature #flowers #beesofinstagram #naturephotography #photography #insects #insect #spring #flower #bumblebee #pollen #garden #gardening #flowers #gardendesign #plants #gardener #gardensofinstagram #gardeners #mygarden #green #plantsofinstagram #flowerstagram #gardenphotography

I was working in the garden and had to run into the house to get something. As i walked something caught my eye where I was about to step. Pulling some serious #matrix moves I stepped around it and then bent down for a closer look. It was pretty awesome being so close to a dragonfly. I carefully picked it up out of the grass and let it rest in my hand, it was super windy, and then off he went. Those eyes though!! ... #dragonfly #insects #nature #wildlife #odonata #anisoptera #macro #naturephotography #dragonflies #dragonfliesofinstagram #insectsofinstagram #beautiful #naturelovers #photooftheday #spring #canada #alberta #imagesofalberta #imagesofcanada #picoftheday
