It certainly is not Fall yet but with mornings in the high 50s and low 60s, it really feels like we are getting pretty close!! With the cooler temps, the deer are very active and the hummers are moving through. I can't keep up with the amount of Hummer juice the little guys are drinking. My feeder holds about 16 oz. So refilling it every day reflects it's importance to these travelers.
Both Calfie and Blanca had their babies in the last ten days. Calfie had a heifer, Sunshine, and Blanca had a bull, Labor. Guess what day Labor was born on? Both mamas are very protective!!! I had an encounter with Blanca that left me shaken and bruised up. Thankfully she didn't kill me!!!! This protective characteristic is good until it is leveled against you!!!!
The 18 acres has been fertilized, so we are waiting for a rain. From the forecast, it looks like it'll be awhile before we get some. In the meantime, all is well....
