Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is sunny and warm.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a male cardinal and a house finch at the hopper feeder.  I've also seen the hummingbird again!  :D  I think it may be interested in the profusely blooming pink beebalm.  I put out water for the birds and also watered a few of the patio plants.

I took the last few plants outside.  

EDIT 5/23/23 -- I potted up 4 Serrano peppers and 4 Black Beauty eggplants.

I've seen several sparrows in the forest garden.

EDIT 5/23/23 -- I started pulling weeds around the forest garden.

EDIT 5/23/23 -- I planted the spigellia in the forest garden.  This concludes planting of live plants at this time.  \o/

EDIT 5/23/23 -- It occurred to me that part of what makes an old-growth forest, and thus a good habitat for woodland wildflowers, is dead wood.  So I broke up some rotted log pieces and set them around the spigellia to help hold moisture.

EDIT 5/23/23 -- I watered plants.

I heard a woodpecker drumming on a tree but didn't see it.

EDIT 5/23/23 -- I watered more plants.

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