Mr. Flower and I recently visited the beautiful but not so peaceful
Heathcote Botanical Gardens in Fort Pierce Coast, Florida.
The gardens are all themed and connected by shady walkways.
I truly enjoyed wondering along the paths and examining the flowers.
But I could not shake the feeling of being watched.
I slowed my paced and quieted my breaths.
Yes. I heard tiny footfalls through the vegetation.
Yes, there were little eyes peeking out at me. Were they guarding the bonsai?
Not only that, I was being followed. I was tailed by one pursuer, then another.
Every time I turned around with my camera, my stalker would sit down and look the other way.
I even tried to hide in the facilities, but there were eyes everywhere!
This lasted longer than Mr. Flower’s patience. He wanted to get on the road toward home.
While I was running for my life, he was lounging on this lovely bench.
He cared nothing about my being spied upon. When I pointed out the culprits, he only laughed.
He wouldn’t know a good mystery if it jumped down from the tree and bit him.
I guess I should share some flower photos from Heathcote Botanical Gardens.
Stay tuned for more.
FLOWER in no Fool.

I think you were someone’s space. Those lizards have made it to our area and they are rather noisy when they run through the plants.

I know you will love this fun fact, there are about 2,000 lizards to the acre where I live in Florida. So, there is always something rustling in the bushes. Going to the plant sale at Heathcote on Friday!!

I hope this never happens to me. Running over one of my toads was traumatic enough.

The cats turned their faces away from my camera so consistently that I wondered if they learned to do this to avoid the flash. It was really fun there. You are lucky to be so close. Tomorrow’s post is on the James J. Smith Bonsai.
