Wednesday Walk - Visiting the Tank Garden

Here is a walk at a tank garden for this #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay

The tanks are everywhere on a large garden landscape hiding amongst the tree.

All shapes and sizes of them exist from different eras of warfare. As impressive as these are we didn't come here for the tanks.

We came here for the nice manicured gardens. The flowers were all blooming and many types of bees were out collecting pollen.

The bees were especially obsessed with the rose garden area.

Every time a gust of wind would go by the roses let out lots of fragrance. Almost every rose had a bee in it.

I wonder where their hive is. I suspect here might be bee boxes somewhere on the garden's grounds.

This was in the rock garden area. I'm not sure what plant this is but it seemed fine growing out of almost no soil.

The fall festival was happening here as well as a few weddings. We had to weave our way through multiple ceremonies to see their pumpkin displays.

Finally we made it to a little wading pond area where my daughter likes to walk through the tiny stream.

I was hoping to get a tiny frog with a lotus flower in the same frame but of course the frog jumped away at the last minute.

The rest of the time was spent managing my daughter. She really wanted to collect all the pumpkins out of the displays and I had to work some jedi mind tricks to distract her from the gourds.

Fortunately squirrel diversionary tactics worked. Plenty of tame squirrels were hanging around burying acorns in preparation for winter.

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)
