Birdfeeding
Today is sunny and mild, a beautiful fall day.
I fed the birds. I've seen a flock of house finches at the hopper feeder. I saw a hummingbird (presumably ruby-throated since that's all we get in central Illinois) at the barrel garden. :D Possible flowers of interest there include firecracker plant, salvias, petunias and million bells, morning glory, and Shithouse Marigolds.
EDIT 9/8/24 -- I watered the patio plants, picnic table, and septic garden. Bees, predatory wasps, butterflies, and other pollinators are swarming the 'Autumn Joy' sedum and other flowers.
EDIT 9/8/24 -- I watered the seedlings in the savanna, telephone pole garden, and grass patch.
EDIT 9/8/24 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.
I've seen a juvenile cardinal at the hopper feeder.
I am done for the night.
