Toward coexistence week 11: April 4- April 10

Posted on April 10, 2022

What a week!!!!!!  We had a nice day (above 60s) and then we had a 25 hours rain storm!!!!!!   Good news was the gardening area was ok.  We had so much water.  Funny enough, the next day, the sun came up.  And WOW~~~~  Grasses, wildflowers, leaves all coming out!!!!

I cannot believe that over night, after the rain, everything is coming out.  It is like, Spring is here~~~~~~  

I believe that it is from the heat and rain.  🙂

Well I did visit the local nursey and bought some flowers.  This time, I paid attention to what flowers attach bees.  While I was there, I saw many bees were buzzing around.  I picked the few that bees seem to be attached to.

The planting ground is still “weed-less” despite I removed the cardboard last week.  Thinking though it, next season, I will leave the weeds alone.  I only dig where I want to plant and have the weeds to cover up the ground/soil.  It will help to protect the soil.

Nevertheless, some flowers are planted.  The wildflowers are growing.  Not as much.  But I can tell Spring is finally arrived. 🙂

For birds?  A pair of American Robins are busy picking worms!  I could not take a picture of them.  But there are a pair.  The female has less orange on her belly.  I wonder where is their nest this season.  Last season, they nest right in the garden ~~~~~~~  I was able to see the pretty blue eggs and the chicks.~~~~~~  Of course, I never got my camera with me. 🙁

Well, with the weather is getting nicer.  I am set forth to do more planting.  Let see what is new next week. 🙂
