Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is sunny, humid, and quite warm.

I fed the birds.  I've seen house finches, goldfinches, sparrows, and cardinals today.

I planted milkweed, orange butterflyweed, and yellow coneflower in 2 spots in the prairie garden.

A new iris is blooming peach-and-purple in the wagonwheel garden, and I don't think I've seen this one before.  It smells exactly  like cotton candy.  :D

EDIT 5/23/21 -- I planted 3 more spots in the prairie garden.  I'm out of milkweed and orange butterflyweed now, so I did the last one in shortgrass prairie mix.

EDIT 5/23/21 -- I planted 3 more spots in the prairie garden with either pale purple coneflower and yellow coneflower, or shortgrass prairie mix.

EDIT 5/23/21 -- I cleared 3 spots in the prairie garden, this time along the path in the middle.
