How did these fairies get over to my shade garden?

Why they came across my new fairy garden bridge!

While visiting the pond store to buy some plants and fish
I found a little garden bridge that would be a perfect fit across one of my water features. I decided to paint it red since that color means in many oriental cultures"happiness"

Thank you all for your comments. In the foreground of the last photo you will catch a glimpse of my Bee Balm which will flower in about two more weeks. As they go into flower the humming birds arrive and start getting their nectar for their flight muscles. Not too long after the Bee Balm finish flowering my Cardinal Flowers come into bloom providing additional attraction for the hummers for quite a while not to mention my Hysop..I even have humming bird moths! In August I provide a nectar feeder for the birds. At the end of the season I can tell when they are getting ready to migrate because they become very belligerent towards each other trying to dive at their foes to chase them away from the hummer feeder. Then after about a week or two all is quiet, they have left.

Not at this time. Wrens, the Bluebird couple, and one seems to be the home of a hornets nest.
