You’d have thought with so many freezes this year the bugs would have slowed down. Not so. Wednesday, I saw and squished a squash vine bore in it’s little black and orange stage. The ants are already going strong.

Saw the first humming bird this morning so need to get the feeders out.

“Saw the first humming bird this morning so need to get the feeders out.”

I have a metal pole in the ground in the middle of the real garden that is about 7 ft. tall. It has a pulley on it to lower or raise a hummingbird feeder. I need a new feeder. Put that on a list to get at Walmart next time I am out. Those feeders will be with the animal stuff which is next to the door to the gardening center and not many people are around there. Should be able to get the feeder and check out in the gardening center so won’t have to stand in line forever to get out of that store - I really don’t like that store - maybe I’ll go to Lowes instead, they should have one.
