Let’s play What’s It Wednesday again. What do you think this is? #WhatsItWednesday
Month: July 2020
A video on my YouTube channel: the ducks swimming in the pond, enjoying mealworm treats tossed from the pond deck. 📹🦆
Flowers of the day: a yucca by the pond cascades, with a bonus GIF of the stream flowing. 🌱
Excellent advice from Heinlein’s Red Planet: 💬
Never listen to newscasts. Saves wear and tear on the nervous system.
Flowers of the day: crocosmia. 🌱
On the homestead blog: yesterday I opened the duck house pop door for the first time, and while Bert joined them, the new ducks didn’t venture into the pond. But today was different; they had their first swims in the pond! 🦆
Since the new ducks didn’t avail themselves of the pond when I opened the pop door yesterday, today I “encouraged” them (I basically shoved them out the door). The three females went first, and Bert showed them around the pond, then the boys joined them.
This video contains five clips from their first swim, from different vantage points around the pond. 📹🦆
Hamilton movie 🍿 #MediaMonday
My wife and I saw Hamilton in Portland in 2018, and we looked forward to seeing this movie recording of the original cast. It was really good, and so well known, I don’t think I need to say more.
Flowers of the day: I haven’t done daylilies for several days, so here you go. 🌱
