Birdfeeding
Sep. 11th, 2025 04:24 pmToday is cloudy and warm.
I haven't fed the birds yet.
There were lots of sparrows and house finches at the red birdbath though. The honeybees drained the small metal one again.
We walked around the yard listing things that need to be cleaned up or cleared out, since a tree service left us a flyer. :D At minimum we want to get the two downed tree-sized branches removed. Hopefully we can get the parking lot cleared of brush and a path re-established to the east edge of the yard. Maybe something else. They're willing to break down the quotes for sub-projects so we can figure out what will fit into our budget.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I fed the birds.
I put out water for the birds.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I did more work around the patio.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I watered the irises, patio plants, and old picnic table garden.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I watered the new picnic table garden, septic garden, telephone pole garden, and savanna seedlings.
I picked 2 red cherry tomatoes.
EDIT 9/11/25 -- I sowed 2 pots with crabapples.
I did some work around the yard.
As it is now dark, I am done for the night.
