Winter Must Be On The Way!

SunflowerBee3_edited-1

Jorden’s sunflowers.
She planted the seeds along the fence in their garden plot that we share here. They grew TALL and were beautiful. I could look out my kitchen window and see them.

The garden has come to an end
*insert evil laughter and me dancing for joy!!*
and with that the end of the beautiful sunflowers!
BUT…

Now when I look out my kitchen window, I see a variety of birds feasting on the seeds….and yesterday I caught these guys!
