Nina Baby Bird Leo in the foreground Nina having lunch Leo... eating grass? We've just released our kittens, Leo and Nina, in the hopes that they'll rid our sheds of mice, and Leo (the gray one) has actually succeeded in catching a few! However, they can cause mischief sometimes, as is shown in the case of one little baby bird (see above pictures) whose nest got knocked down and its parents couldn't find it. We've given it to Angelica Hatke in the hopes that it'll survive... And it has! (So far.)
Melon Salad Melons and pumpkins Wagon full of produce Shallots + onions One (?) giant gourd plant Two rows of corn... Almost ready now! Squash ready for the picking Egg-plant... geddit? This one is actually shaped like an egg! Almost-ready Rattlesnake watermelon Two Asian melons... Almost ready! A big clump of elderberries ready to be picked Several ounces of hot peppers with tomatoes in the background Tomatoes! A pumpkin... in August? We're planning on vacationing in mid-September... hopefully that'll be an interesting experience! Meanwhile, back at the ranch farm, August means LOTS of produce... especially melons! Asian melons, watermelons, cantaloupes, etc. etc. etc... The corn will probably be ready this weekend, so hopefully it'll be okay... School will start next week, and not everybody is excited ... 😕😕😕 Everything's going to be okay!
