Out for a walk. The snow has mostly melted off leaving the yard a soggy mess.
Bee and the little man are on the major deer trail that goes along the orchard.
Look what we found. I wonder if it's from the big buck that hangs around or if we have a new visitor.
This is the ugliest time of year for our property. The grass is brown and muddy, nothing is growing and the snow has melted to reveal all of the crap I have littering our yard. Add the feral chickens running around and you can practically hear the banjos twanging.
I'm honestly feeling badly for our neighbors lately. Between the roosters, geese and the female ducks the only way this property could be louder is if we had a kennel full of dogs. Seriously, it's embrassing. Mostly they only go crazy when we're out in the yard. Although late last night I could hear the geese (me inside the house with all the windows shut) going nuts about something, a skunk I think. I knew they would be loud but I didn't know they would be *that* loud. Whoops.
After the little guy gets up from his nap we're going to head back outside. It's supposed to be back down to 15 by Saturday. Crazy weather.
Your plot might be noisy, but think of the lessons you are giving your little man, all the birds, the wildlife around, so many children never understand food chains and wildlife. Your plot are so much bigger, your neighbours probably like to hear the birds, it's comforting to hear you are not alone.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, thanks Marlene. Sometimes it needs put in perspective :)
