...a nice steady drizzle.Tomatillos self seeded in this failed flower bed where our firewood was stored up against the house for the last two or three seasons:
Also coming up here are Hopi Branched Sunflowers. I am excited to see them get big, flower and attract a plethora of pollinators to our patio area, between the two main gardens.We still have the 17 Australorp Pullets we split with the neighbor over a month ago.. not one lost yet!
In this short video below they can be seen moving around their run at the back of our property. The neighbor's Jersey Giant rooster can be heard in the video (and now, as i type this) as well as Tella (our Aussie-Shepherd Mix) barking back at the house.
so far the chickies have one shade/ food & water structure but soon they will have a tractor, and a few nesting boxes and who knows; maybe some fun perches for roosting around.
We almost got rain today. The wind kicked up, the sky clouded over (just as I put squash out in the solar oven), and the air smelled like rain. It all blew away without a drop of moisture though.
