On the homestead blog: today’s the day! Today I opened the pop door of the duck house. But it didn’t go quite as expected. 🦆
Month: July 2020
On my YouTube channel: today we opened the duck house pop door, enabling the new ducks to go into the pond, but instead Bert took the opportunity to join them in their house and run. (Bert is the duck closest to the pop door.) 📹🦆
Flowers of the day: a linden tree, popular with our bees, and a very pleasant fragrance. 🌱
On the homestead blog: today is the last day before the new ducks can go free-range; I plan to open the pop door and let them go into the pond tomorrow morning. 🦆
On the homestead blog: setting up our swimming pool.
On the homestead blog this week for Caturday, a couple of GIFs with Poppa and Bella, and the usual assortment of cat pics. #Caturday 🐈
On the homestead blog today at the duck house, I feel like I’m being watched, and I watch shimmery feathers, with a fun fact that I just learned for you. 🦆
On the homestead blog: this week will probably be the last Flock Friday without the new ducks — they should be out in the pond by next week. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
Flowers of the day: silver ragwort, aka dusty miller, with cinnabar moth caterpillars. We encourage the caterpillars, as they eat tansy ragwort, which is toxic to animals. 🌱
