Birdfeeding

Today is sunny, breezy, and quite warm.

I fed the birds.  I've seen house finches and doves today.

I put topsoil around the last 2 privets. 

EDIT 6/5/21 -- I watered the privets.

EDIT 6/5/21 -- I planted 2 paw paws in the streetside yard, put grow tubes on them, and watered them.

EDIT 6/5/21 -- I planted a Dolgo crabapple in the savanna and a dewberry in the berry patch west of the prairie garden.

White penstemon is blooming in the wildflower garden.

The hollyhock that was partly blown over yesterday has zigzagged upright again.  :D

Cherries are starting to turn red.  Some mulberries are beginning to darken, others are still pink or green.  Most blackberries have green fruit.

EDIT 6/5/21 -- I planted 1 White Feather hosta and 2 Regal Blue hostas in the purple-and-white garden.

As it is getting dark and I'm tired, I'm done for the day.
