Birdle’s Nest!
I found the nest Birdle uses while not in my porch corner! I did see Birdle sitting in it, singing, but couldn’t get a photo without scaring it away, so I didn’t approach until it was empty.

Butterfly!
This butterfly had just come out of its pupa after gorging on my parsley! I was so happy that I got one butterfly right on my asparagus fern!
Beautiful Butterfly!
Flower-shaped mushrooms
I saw these cool flower-shaped mushrooms outside the grocery store! I don’t know what they are.

Went Bird Watching with Ben and Scott!
Ben and Scott and I went to Lettuce Lake Park to look at birds and then we ate at Queen of Sheba for Ethiopian food! My bird photos are not very high quality but theirs were.

The tree guys came and this is the remains of the tree before they came to get it.

Broken Tree
A tree that broke sideways earlier this month has now had the remaining standing part fall and almost hit my house. Yikes. The tree removal service folks were already scheduled at this point but the appointment wasn’t in time to avoid this happening.
Tree broke and fell!
Really big tree
