Round One, I went out and trimmed grass around two saplings in the savanna where I will plant bulbs later.
EDIT 10/8/19: Round Two, I planted 12 narcissus around a sapling in the savanna.
EDIT 10/8/19: Round Three, I planted 5 narcissus around a sapling in the savanna. This finishes the row of small windbreak trees.
EDIT 10/8/19: Round Four, I planted 8 narcissus around a sapling in the savanna. That's 25 for today, plus the previous 75, for a total of 100/150. More or less. There are actually some bulbs left in the bag.

I found this video of birds at a feeder in winter. Featured species include chickadees, tufted titmice, sparrows, goldfinches, house finches, cardinals, blue jays, downy woodpeckers, and red-bellied woodpeckers. The view is very similar to that from my parent's back deck.
