Birdfeeding
Nov. 6th, 2025 01:01 pmToday is sunny and mild, a beautiful fall day.
I fed the birds. I've seen a flock of sparrows and a goldfinch.
I put out water for the birds.
The tree guys are supposed to come out today. We looked at the area where the chip mulch should be deposited, and want to do a bit of trimming there to make it more obvious.
EDIT 11/6/25 -- We trimmed brush to make the mulch location more visible.
The tree guys are here! :D Loud work, but much needed.
EDIT 11/6/25 -- We checked on progress. The path to the east edge and through the orchard is clear. The big limb has been removed from the south lot. Progress!
Despite all that racket, the goldfinch is still hugging the thistle feeder.
EDIT 11/6/25 -- The tree guys are done! \o/ There is still some cut brush we'll need to deal with, more to cut down around the edges of the parking lot, and at least two places that need stumps ground. But a lot has been cleared, we have some piles of firewood, and I have a lot of mulch. Yay.
EDIT 11/6/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.
I've seen several house finches.
EDIT 11/6/25 -- I did more work around the patio.
I am done for the night.
