Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is partly sunny and mild.

I've seen a male rose-breasted grosbeak and a blue jay at the fly-through feeder.  :D

EDIT 5/7/25 -- I fed the birds.  I've seen a male indigo bunting, a male cardinal, and a brown thrasher.

I put out water for the birds.  I dumped the red birdbath and refilled it.  While I haven't seen any birds using it, the amount of dirt and algae in the water strongly implies that they are.

I put the flats of plants outside.

EDIT 5/7/25 -- We went out to pick up more garden supplies: 2 bags of potting soil, 1 bag of composted manure, and roughly 2 flats of plants.  The weather has warmed up.

My partner Doug is going out to mow the house yard and some other places.

EDIT 5/7/25 -- I planted a purple-and-white striped Wave petunia in a pot by itself.  I filled 2 green pots, each with 2 black pansies and 2 Johnny-jump-ups.

EDIT 5/7/25 -- I raked the center path of the prairie garden, then sowed it with grass and clover seed.

I brought in the flats of pots.

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