Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is sunny and hot. It rained off and on yesterday, not a lot, but enough to help. I miss the fall rains.

I haven't fed the birds yet.

I trimmed a patch of grass in the white garden, and poured a gallon of water over it in hopes of softening the ground.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I fed the birds. I've seen a small flock of house sparrows.

I put out water for the birds and watered a few plants.

Honeybees are mobbing the water stations.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I planted 2 'Immortality' white irises in the white garden at the end of the driveway.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I put mulch around the white irises.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I watered the white irises and the telephone pole garden.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I watered the patio plants, picnic table, and septic garden.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I watered the patch in the prairie garden.

EDIT 9/14/24 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

I've seen a male and two female cardinals at the fly-through feeder.

Cicadas and crickets are singing.

As it is now dark, I am done for the night.
