A hummingbird visits an obedient plant. A friend of Bean Brook Nursery took this photo the other day. Like usual, she said we could use it.

A month from now, if all goes well, the hummingbird will be somewhere south and the obedient plant gone to seed.

We saw a hummingbird visiting a volunteer evening primrose by our front deck early this morning. I'm seeing some people report on social media the hummingbirds they've been seeing are gone.

We had a customer stop in just after we opened. All is well on the front. One a day keeps the worry away.

It's chilly out there. High fifties. Cloudy, gray, gusts of wind. A taste of fall.

A good time to pile firewood. And that's what I'm going to go do.

Until next time.
