We have a little guinea family...the mom, the dad, and one baby...
Late in the day on Sunday, I noticed the baby having trouble flying up in the tall cedar tree so I brought out the old bent up ladder...
Wasn't long before she was right up there next to her mom.
Haven't spent much time up at the little playhouse under the long legged tower lately...
Seems like my energy and excitement over gardening fizzled out in early July. I've promised myself, if the Lord is willing, that things will be different next summer.
I want flowers, lots of flowers, growing along with the vegetables in the garden. So, I've got about seven month to dream, and plan, and work on improving the soil in the teeny tiny garden. I did get most of the garden cleaned up yesterday except for that big Basil plant and the row of okra.
and pretty wild flowers are blooming around the pond...
Thank you for visiting. Hope to be back soon.
Love,
Henny
Hi Henny, lovely photos! Aren't you sweet to help the baby Guinea! Your beauty berry is absolutely gorgeous. Penny the rabbit is so adorable. Perfect name for her. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteCute little quinea! I think Penny is a great name for the bunny. Have a good evening.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little haven you live in! I could be very happy all that to look at all day long. Your beauty berry is AMAZING! I found out what it was a couple of winters ago when I saw the dried berries in my son's backyard. The berries are mesmerizing, even when they are all dried up...maybe even more so. Thanks for sharing you little farm with us!
ReplyDeleteYes, already thinking about next summer's garden, too. The shade here is spreading wider and longer. Add that to the short growing season of Massachusetts, and I think I'm going to have to give up on vegetables.
ReplyDeletePenny is a precious name. Bless you for assisting the quinea. I once had a beauty berry bush and yours is so nice - the berries remind me of the pop beads I made necklaces with when I was a kid!
ReplyDeleteAmazing the little chick knew what to do. She looks so sweet with her parents. Seems pretty soon you will have a large bunny farm if you keep collecting them.
ReplyDeleteFun post! Cute bunny, smart chick, pretty flowers, and that beauty berry bush is wonderful! And of course, Eli!
ReplyDeleteThat was very sweet if you to help out the lil baby it just shows how smart that animals are! I love the picture of Penny :) and lovely berry bush.

ReplyDeleteThings are very good. You have lots of greenery and flowers.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny how we always think of how we'll do things NEXT year. I am trying to jot down some of my "great" ideas so I will actually do them next year and not forget.
ReplyDeletePenny is so cute she makes me want to get my own bunny.
Hi! Penny looks so sweet. Would make me want to pick her up and cuddle her. I think when it gets so hot it is hard to continue to be enthused about gardening! I love to dream and plan all winter too. I say I am an armchair gardener! Nancy
ReplyDeleteEli looks too clean for a guarding the farm dog! Your Penny is really cute! Everything looks real pretty there! :)
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have created yourself a lovely little haven to live in. All those animal are precious and the planting around the pond is stunning. I love to plan for next year that is half the fun of gardening. Take care.
ReplyDeleteHi Henny! I feel the same way about my garden this year and I'm dreaming of next year, too. Aw! Penny is super cute! The purple berries are stunning!
ReplyDeletePenny is just a doll. She looks so soft and cuddly.
ReplyDeleteI think lots of gardeners poop out around about the middle of July or early August. Just too hot to do much of anything out side and usually dryness is taking a toll on the plants. It's onward and upward toward some fall changes and a list a yard long of possible plans for next year some of which might actually become reality.
The beauty berry bush is just gorgeous. I love the shiny metallic color. I planted one in a neglected corner of the yard a few weeks ago. I'm hoping for a mild winter so that it gets a good start and comes through in good shape.
Awwwwwww--little bunny Penny is so so sweet! So glad you were able to go GET HER! Love these pretty pictures on here of the flowers/vines/garden area and all. What pretty flowers! I never did know what that one was called--the beauty berry one. We have those here too, I make pictures of them and never knew what they were. October is almost here, and you believe it ??
