Sometimes Laziness is OK

Went out and weeded (or started to clean up) some of the back yard last week. But being the wimp that I am, could only last about 25 minutes before my stamina petered out. Rather than tidy up and tossing the pulled offending weeds, I simply left them where they fell. They have been there all week.
But all is not gloom and doom. The quail love the fact that the previously out of their reach seeds are now at their level.
Laziness rewarded!



















And then today a most unexpected visitor.






















Mind you, there are lots of Squirrels in Spokane, just not on this side of a very busy street with no trees to readily hide in on our side. Guess I'll have to get some peanuts for her (him). Won't that make the guy in the unit over me ticked.

I just read some of your back posts and love the picture of the goldfinches on the sunflowers. It looks like you had a pretty good growing season for the flowers.

that is nice of the quail to clean up all of the weed seeds.

Times like this I wish we still lived up there so I could help you out.
