AROUND THE HOUSE .

Today we finished some planting of flowers, put some of the flowers in 2 of our gardens and all of our planters.We still have to sort and organize our back garden .Yesterday we put mulch around our new bushes and filled the gardens and planters with new top soil. The weather the past few days has been very hot and humid but today was cooler.We bought some new bird feeders as the squirrels could get into the old ones even though I put bowls of food out for them , we have a total of 12 feeders, 4 Hummingbird feeders , 2 which are in my hanging basket's, 2 Oriole  feeder's , 2  Niger feeders, 2 sunflower feeders , 1 song bird mixed and a wood house feeder with mixed and peanuts, then I put out 3 bowls with sunflower seeds, peanuts and mixed , my goodness we have to remortgage the house to feed our critters lol. We do the same in the winter as well. Its great to watch all the birds and critters ,to see the butterfly's fluttering from flower to flower to hear the song birds in the mornings and evenings as they fliter about from feeder to feeder. We have a family of cotton tail bunnies living under my potting shed and they come out to graze early morning and in the evening as the sun slowly sets, its wonderful! The wild life that goes on around our Country Cove is fantastic! So after all that we both sat on our patio , relaxed  , did some reading and hubby did some of his carving as nature around us was busy and entertaining us.
