I think these are both a 5 stripe skink. This is the first time I’ve been able to get a shot of one. The top one is a juvenile and the bottom is an adult male.

Tiny critters in the butterfly garden.

My first hummingbird moth sighting. He was tiny and fast. He buzzed in for a few seconds next to a butterfly I was taking a picture of and then he was gone over the bushes. I looked for him for a long time with no luck. At least I got the blurry shots above. These guys are really cool.

Soft shell turtle near the pond.

Turtle on the lily pad.

Juvenile osprey that grew up in a nest on the utility pole.  All three were born this past winter and were just starting to fly around.

Not many birds at the gardens in late June. Just the above.
