Today I will discover yet another wonder of Nature. Its beauty surrounds me. The yellow and dry leaves are falling from my trees, as I write. It seems a little early but the trees have been shedding leaves in mid August for the past few years. The Hummingbirds are still enjoying their nectar. I wonder why the ants this year have climbed down the wire to drink the sweet water. I need to change the water often. I can hear the Chickadees and Titmice as they are feeding. I have a large feeder for sunflower seed and a tubular for thistle, which the Goldfinch sit on most of the day. I sometimes think they just pick out the seeds and drop them, for the fun of it. I must feed the 21 baby goldfish twice a day, as they are always hungry. I love my small fishpond, which I have enjoyed for many years. Last year, snakes and cats killed my fish but not before they produced a large offspring. So far, they are all alive and well but there are too many. Well, I will feed them well and let them grow! There is so much to write about. Would love to hear from all you Nature lovers. Bevan
