Hello and thank you for visiting my blog. I'm Deb Hudson, I've been living in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts for about eleven years now. My favorite hobbies are gardening, bird-watching, and photography, so I am starting this garden journal so that I can share with you the amazing beauty of nature that's right outside my back door. My backyard is in a wooded area, there are several willow trees along one side, many perennials, a fair amount of lawn, and three tiny gardens for vegetables and herbs. I get a lot of enjoyment from watching the many different birds and other wildlife that live in my backyard. I hope you will enjoy this blog and let me know what's happening in your backyard, too.
like it nice show me more!
ReplyDeletelooks good, Debbie!
ReplyDeleteLove your close-ups, Debbie, especially the one of the bleeding heart on the front page, and the 2 baby robins with mouths wide open. Can I send the bunny that is eating up my garden down your way???? I feel like I understand Mr MacGreagor from Peter Rabbit much, much better now....
ReplyDeleteSure, bunny rabbits are always welcome here! They are cute creatures, but I enclose my vegetable gardens with chicken wire so the rabbits can't get in, because they do like to eat the new growth on beans and other plants.
DeleteDebbie - I am SO impressed. You have a wonderful garden - bunnies and all. I love your photos!

Debbie, What a picturesqe plot of nature! You have created a canvas of color.Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise. Here in Chardon,Ohio I have decided not to fuss with bird feeders as every creature other then the birds finds its way to the seed and destroys the feeder in the process. Instead I fill one bird bath with "critter food", bird seed, nuts and sunflower seeds every day and all the wildlife can enjoy a daily banquet.A second bird bath is filled with clean water.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Janice!
DeleteThat's a great idea to use a bird bath as a feeder. I use a hanging bird feeder in the fall and winter, I take it down sometime in the spring when the squirrels get too pushy.
Nice to hear from a fellow Midwesterner -- I grew up in Shaker Hts., Ohio. I hope you'll continue to enjoy my blog.
