Is there anyone who does not like sunflowers. (That's rhetorical I hope.) Every year a few seeds spilled from the winter bird feeders manage to escape hungry beaks, germinate, grow, and flower - much appreciated.
I live in a small neighborhood; they call it a subdivision. One of the neighbors is having some construction done which I'm grateful for. Something to watch and look forward to watching in these complicated times. Like most sensible people, I don't get out as much as I used to because of Covid 19. He's OK with me chronicling the progression of the construction. This is the garage. The square in the middle is where concrete has been removed and replaced with even an additional foot of concrete in order to support the ongoing building. These photos are from Tuesday.
Seasons come and go; haying has been going on for a while now,. Many farmers use the roll up hay "bales"; others still store hay in rectangular bales. The winter wheat has already been harvested.
These shots were taken on Wednesday. The overhead door is gone and a huge beam, one of several, is being made. It will rest on the concrete block which is now on top of the new larger reinforced concrete square. That corner is also going to disappear; the narrow slits where there were windows will be replaced by larger windows.
These two males normally fight over this feeder which must be placed where their two territories intersect. I do have three feeders but they are positioned, scattered, to reduce fights. Middle children are typically peace keepers.
