Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

Around the apartment

 The knock-out roses all rained their petals off themselves. They'll pause and be back again in a week or two.
 I do enjoy my flowering basket on my porch.

 Why do people wear a mask with their nose sticking out?

 The wren couple are back, or at least they were until they noticed me.

If they aren't going to do another nest in the little spirit house, then I can maybe clean off the debris. I didn't see much of them the next day when I had the door open again. I've got the hummingbird feeder out there...as well as a few plants. It's great this time of year when the air is sort of cool in mornings, and not too muggy.

  1. That masked woman was an odd sight to me. Not only was her nose uncovered but she is masked when no one is near. We don't do that here, so it looks unusual to me.

    1. I think she just arrived home, and the woman standing way out on the sidewalk might have been the driver who took her shopping. I just looked out and of course had to capture a photo of such a strange sight.

  2. Hello,
    Love the wrens. I think some people have trouble breathing with the mask on. Beautiful blooms. Take care and stay safe! Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!

    1. I think the robins who have decided to nest on the other side of my living room (where I can't see them at all, except as they fly right by) have scared away the smaller wrens. Now there will be robins against the building on a drainpipe. I hope to figure out a way to photograph them. But mainly I hope they won't scare away the hummingbirds.

  3. ... Why do people wear a mask with their nose sticking out? I ask myself the same question.

    1. Rather strange, but at least she was far enough away from everyone that it probably didn't matter.

  4. LOL, My wife and I just had a laugh about wearing the mask with the nose not covered. Why bother. :)

    1. You said it...worth a good laugh. I'm glad she wasn't close to me, or I'd have walked away.
