The last two roost hoces are up!

P put his woodpecker hoce up himself.

I put my last one up. Much easier with ladder wrangling help!

We actually saw a little Carolina Wren, checking out each of the houses on the trees. I hope he found one he liked! I opened up Wren Manor, but still couldn’t tell for sure if anyone is using it. I think I saw a little path in the shavings, and a bird poop, but I’m not positive and didn’t want to ransack his home if he’s living there.

I also straightened up the sandstone pieces, and moved the osage-orange over. Very hard work, but looks a bit better.

I switched out one of the pieces by the pond; now I have a chair and a table.

Found a fuzzy friend.

A non-fuzzy green friend (Sulphur, maybe?)

I think these penstemon are Pikes Peak Purple. Apparently, they think it’s spring.

Radio Red has bloomed steadily since I planted it this spring. Hope it survives winter–lovely plants!

These are the annual salvia I bought for the MLBs early in spring. Hope they reseed…they’ve bloomed steadily, too.

Surprise lilies I moved when C and I dug them up decided not to stay dormant.

Found another friend; a pretty Lady.

I may end up with tomatoes next spring. Mexico Midget is still producing, though cold makes them unfit to eat (taste funny, I guess).
