The gorgeous Zinnia's (one of my favorites!) have just started to bloom this week! BUT....the battle of the bugs begins! Early this morning, I happended upon a family of Japenese Beetles gorging themselves at the Zinnia food bar. I caught them before they woke up from their slumber, after what was no doubt a Thanksgiving sized meal for their growing bodies. I captured all dozen or so and lovingly passed them on to the chickens for a yummy breakfast treat. "Circle of Life" you know.
