Life in all its glory and fragility is abundant in my garden today.
Yesterday, Licorice, the oldest feral cat resident, decided to bypass the tarp covered plastic bins I had set in the side garden I rarely use.
Instead, she gave birth to her kittens in the only remaining high grass - exactly where I had planned to cut it down today and plant sunflowers and cosmos.
Now she moved her new family of three a few feet away to under the thriving rosemary scrub and within a snarl and a scratch away from all the new containers filled with sage and basil, lemongrass, ginger and garlic.
Oh well, temporary hand watering will build up my arms.
Honey bees and a backwards flying Anna's hummingbird gleefully gather the nectat from the orange blossoms.
Peace reigns supreme, and is that not what a garden is supposed to provide?
