Bungalow Bashing
The crunching and grinding go on for an entire day. Imagine how unsettling this would be in your neighborhood. I always hope the guys have a very ACCURATE map before they pick out the house. A new McMansion will be up in a month. Such is progress. (That was the FATE part of the title)
FLORA
These are NOT cute ferns. These are cute pests. I'm posting this for Cindy at My Corner of Katy. Did you know there are two kinds of this weed? The common one is over in the lower left. I have the pleasure of having the long-stalked version as well. It's not quite as bad as the short one, but it's still double trouble.
FAUNA
One of the reasons I keep the garden natural (no poisons) is for the wildlife. We have a cardinal family now and junior is getting a snack from good 'ol dad. I never realized how attentative the male cardinal is to the young. In fact, mom flew away when she saw me in the window, but dad ignored me for good reason.
