Each morning brings little surprises as I walk around the property.
First thing, I open up the door to the funny little greenhouse and let in the fresh morning air. It can get very hot in there; too hot for some of the flowers.
Some begonias have been potted up and now sit in shady/partial sun areas around and along the path to the back of the property. This path is covered in years of fallen maple leaves and will stay that way as I love the look. I have always envisioned a flowery path, passing by the old out-house and leading to the stone wall. And now, little by little, I can bring that vision to life.
The feeders are filled and the water topped up in the bird bath that sits amongst the perennials.
I am waiting anxiously to see the colour appear as each plant comes back to life. I know I won't remember the name of each plant, as something ran off with the name sticks, but I'll figure it out with the help of friends and google. lol
As I filled the platform feeder at the old well, I was accompanied by Simon who had just woke up and popped out of his hole to check the day's weather. He was given a handful of seeds and some apple to start his morning. It's so good to see him doing well. :)
Annie is in her glory with her fresh cat grass and a mouse-house full of sun-puddles.
She's quite the little guard dog.
Audrey shows no interest yet but I know her curiosity will get the best of her and she will eventually chow down.
When the lazy butt finally makes an appearance.
Here it is the weekend again.
I'm hoping the sun settles in as we have a very exciting and busy few days.
I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day however you celebrate.
I live on the edge waiting to see what Audrey has in store for me. :-b
hugs, Deb
