For Home Gardeners Who Love To Dig In The Dirt

It's Garden Bloggers Bloom Day - October. My mid October offerings are fully autumn now. Most of my flowers are gone and what I have left is glorious autumn foliage on trees and shrubs...some pumpkins tool. Come and take a brief tour of my garden on this fine, foggy October day.
Mosaic Monday - Trip To A Pumpkin Farm. Take a look at this mosaic of all the cool pumpkins we picked out when we went to a pumpkin farm this weekend. I like the unusual and odd shaped ones. And I get a nice pumpkin display without even carving. It was much cheaper than buying pumpkins at a supermarket and a lot more fun.

Juncos are our first hint of an impending winter in our area, and are one of my favorite winter birds. Yesterday, I saw my first ones. They are here. These beautiful chocolate colored birds will be with me throughout the fall and winter and into spring. It is so much fun to do some backyard birding, when I can't really get out into the garden.
