Today attention given to pond area in early morning. Checked water temperature and was pleasantly suprised - 58°! Thus first feeding of koi.
The arbors that provide entry needed to be stablized. I pulled them back to square, then packed in crushed limestone. Wind in Midwest can often howl with gusts that cause shifting.
The entry to pathways into our swing and woodland garden needed to be addressed. Now flagstone marks entry with less “bump” for those not paying attention.
The compost pile that has aged for 2yrs was put to good use today around evergreens as mulch. Secured a woodcarving of bird we bought in North Carolina to the post at entry of vegetable/herb garden. A friendly greeter, indeed!
Also this morning as I ventured out I could hear frogs at the pond. Though I could not see them, I definitely heard them. Janet was able to see them, and her camera caught them in action. Wildlife adds much charm to our gardens, and hopefully are always made to feel welcomed.
