Surprise at the top of the ladder

I spent the day working on repainting the exterior windows. Here's what I found when I reached the attic ledge, when I was starting to prepare the surface for the new coat of paint.

View from the top! (I took a backpack up, with my paint scraper, caulk, and camera in in it - so I could have one hand free to hang on to the ladder)





The daylilies and roses are about the only thing blooming at the moment in the garden.
