    The benefits of nature at any age My mom has had this quote from Mark Twain on her wall ever since I was small: “Age is a matter of the mind. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.” As I continue to age myself, I of course appreciate that quote

    How to Spend More Time in Nature

    Want to spend more time in nature? Start small. I spoke to a woman yesterday who said, “I want to spend more time in nature, but I don’t know where to begin.” I think many people can relate to her experience, and many factors can contribute to us not pursuing

Several Bullock's Oriole broods have fledged in this one area. I counted at least eight fledglings. I rarely see them after they leave the nest, so this was a special treat today.

Each season is a little different and each bird is different. Take these Bullock's Orioles. I almost never see a female pop up and sit at the top of a tree like that. As a result, this is my first clear photo of a female oriole!

Mom and Dad (third photo) were guarding their babies. I could hear the fledglings,  but couldn't see them. Maybe I will get to see them in a day or two.

Renewal. Nature creates cycles of renewal that can Renewal. Nature creates cycles of renewal that can astound us, and life persists.

I posted awhile back about the two orchids we received as gifts when our almost 8-year-old son was born. They rebloomed every year until 2020. 
🌸
Well, they are back! The first is in full, tremendous bloom right now. The second I had almost written off as a goner. Its leaves shriveled  and roots waning. It had even been dropped. But look! It has a new leaf and three roots growing. 
🌸
A lesson in patience and believing  in the power of renewal.

The new trellises are in. I am experimenting with The new trellises are in. I am experimenting with alternatives to tomato cages this year.

I have spiral stakes and homemade bamboo-and-twine trellises. So far, I am liking that both allow much easier access to the plants, in addition to support.
