    Beautiful sparkling webs dot the front lawn this morning. ****************************************** My nasturtiums seem to be doing very well. I just love the shape of their leaves. ****************************************** Still rainy this morning but the weather looks to be warm(ish) and clearish) by the weekend. ******************************************

    My heart is breaking! I just watched an electric company worker take down the street light out front - the one that had the sparrow nest in it! When he removed the light fixture, all this stuff came out and at least one bird flew out at him - he jumped a foot, lol - serves him right! The poor little things have no home now! I hope all the babies had left the nest. Now I want to know who ratted out the sparrows? It had to be one of our neighbors ...

    So much going on now it's hard to keep up! The world is green again and there are things flying in the air and crawling underfoot. Nature is having a field day this month. ****************************************** Temps in the low 70s this week. A little rain maybe but mostly clear. Great planting weather. ****************************************** Speaking of planting, we've been busy doing just that. A post about all our garden aspirations will be up soon ... ******************************************

Crinkle, Crackle, Crunch ...

Do you hear that? It's the sound of the dried autumn leaves underfoot ... have you seen themField_day_button_2_5 cascading down this past week, in lovely shades of yellow, orange and brown? Just enough to look pretty - but not so many that raking is necessary?

Yes, we're but a few days shy of the autumnal equinox and ... the Early Autumn Field Day deadline!

And, that, folks is where I was going with this! :) Just a friendly (and hopeful) reminder to send me your nature posts for Field Day: The Early Autumn Edition which will go up next Wednesday!

I'd like to have your submissions by the end of the day Monday (OK, or Tuesday), so please send me your details by then at drNOSPAMhanigan@verizon.net (take out the NOSPAM first):

  • your name
  • your blog URL
  • your post URL
  • a brief description of your post or pictures

(You can find more details here in this post.)

Remember, you don't need a blog to participate! Send me an e-mail with your pictures, or even just your thoughts and ideas for autumn nature study - and I'll weave them into the post. :)

And hey, speaking of the autumnal equinox - which is this Saturday, by the way - it would be a great weekend to post about and/or photograph how your family welcomes in the new season! (Just a thought!) To get you in the mood, consider some of the autumnal ideas in this post.

But as always, any posts and pictures about nature of any kind are most welcome at our Field Days!

If you could help me spread the word about Field Day, I'd appreciate it very much! And a big thank you to those who have plugged my carnival already!

Dawn, I linked to this post to help spread the word and by gum I'm going to try to write a field day post and get it to you by late Monday (rather than Tuesday lol)!

I'm still in, but it's going to be um, late Monday (maaayyybeee Tuesday) before I get it in. Sorry!

Not a problem, Jennifer!

And thank you SO much, Becky! :)
