Sunflowers are sprouting up. Planted them last week before the rains came. Used about a 6# bag in this plot. Figured the crows would be pecking them up pretty quickly. I wasn't wrong. So we'll see how many make it to flowers. I will be cutting some down for my chickens when they're ready.

My quail sure appreciate the sunflowers I plant once snow falls. Me, I love to see the contortions they go through trying to reach the seeds on those downturned heads!

I've had a busy week. Sitting on the back porch decompressing,
this sunset happened. I took the pic with my old Samsung mobile.
And the pic doesn't begin to do justice to what my eye was seeing.
Have a good weekend.

Fire in the sky, & beautiful!

First peach of 2025. Picked it today. Last year a coon broke that young
tree in half getting at a few peaches. Hopefully, this year the dog will help keep
the coons, deer and squirrels at bay, maybe.

Aren't those the ones that sit on your fence?
They call them Red Wood Ducks around here. They like to roost in the trees.

Peaches around here have barely come out of their shuck.
