It's been a difficult week for everyone. Things will undoubtably get worse before they get better as the world embraces new challenges with unfamiliar situations related to the Coronavirus.
To maintain balance, please take time to find and focus on the good in your lives. Personally, I find peace in nature and sending time outdoors.
"Potted Coleus from last year"
I am happy to provide an update on the "rabbit-chomped" hyacinths pictured in my post last week and show they have bloomed with a little help from Mother Nature's rains and applications of blood meal to deter further bunny feedings!
This was the "before" image of the hyacinth from last week.
We had the lawn aerated to help the grass grow, though Fall is the preferred time to do this. Aeration involves "perforating" the soil with small holes so that air, water, and nutrients can penetrate down to the roots of the grass.
We replaced the bird feeder and bought some higher grade birdseed containing more sunflower and thistle seeds for the #featheredfriends who will be building nests and mating soon.
Mr. Cardinal approved the new feeder and contents! It's such a challenge for me to get quality photos of birds.
The creek that runs in the yard looks muddy after a couple days of rainfall. The scenery is not very pretty yet, as we await the lush leaves and green foliage to fill in.
