Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is sunny and cool.  It rained off and on yesterday afternoon and evening.

I haven't fed the birds yet, but I've seen a flock of sparrows and a pair of house finches.

I raked the leaves away from the Colorado blue spruce.

I started trimming stems around the hazel bush.

The apricot tree is blooming.  So are the first of the solid-purple violets.  :D

EDIT 3/15/24 -- I fed the birds.

The day has gotten considerably warmer.  Honeybees are now loudly servicing the apricot tree. \o/

I hauled a bag of compost and manure to the spruce tree, cut open the bag, and started spreading the compost.  At least for now, Rural King has my favorite brand, American Countryside.

EDIT 3/15/24 -- I spread more compost around the spruce tree.   

EDIT 3/15/24 -- I finished spreading compost around the spruce tree.

EDIT 3/15/24 -- I watered the compost to flatten it down some.

That's all I have time for today, so I am done for the night.
