Western Tanager
Yesterday, we almost flipped when we saw a Western Tanager in the big elm out back. It flew to the Mulberry and disappeared from view.
In other news, Saturday saw the tilling in of the rest of the green manure, as well as the tilling and leveling off of a little patch of dirt by the back peach that never gets water and therefore never grasses in. When we irrigate next week we shall see if the problem is fixed.
Plug aeration continues. When the grass begins to achieve summer stress I may discontinue it. But the earth is so compacted from the silted water and the weight of being underwater that it may need it all summer.
