Birdfeeding
Jul. 31st, 2021 04:51 pmToday is cloudy and cool, in the low 60s. :D It rained again this morning.
I fed the birds. I've seen house finches and doves, and I think a male goldfinch. Yesterday I saw a male cardinal.
I pulled some weeds around the barrel garden.
Naked ladies are starting to bloom around the old fishpond. Yesterday I thought there was only one stalk, but today I spotted several more. Chicory and thistle are blooming around the savanna and prairie garden. Read about the wildlife value of thistles.
EDIT 7/31/21 -- I pulled more weeds around the barrel garden. The morning glories are still open. :D It's drizzling again, but not enough to dissuade me from working.

EDIT 7/31/21 -- I finished weeding around the barrel garden and started weeding around the septic garden.
EDIT 7/31/21 -- I pulled more weeds around the septic garden. Everything is still soaking wet, but the weeds pull out easier that way.
