A separate bowl of cheap inexpensive seed keeps Timex away from the premium seed in the bird feeder. When Time runs back to his hidey-hole with his cheeks full, the blue jays enjoy pecking the seed out of the bowl.

Hot and humid weather yields a perfect harvest of mushrooms.

Almost 2 inches of rain for the week.
A loan Heath aster pokes its head through the grass.
The hot, humid, and rainy weather took a toll on Himself's garden. Timex at the few cherry tomatoes on the vine, and the lone cucumber looks pretty sad.

Color rises as a flush across the street.
An impossible blue sky
So much for Timex staying away from the seed in the bird feeder.
Corolla made a good model for an Inktober drawing.
The Halloween decorations are up in the front porch.
At the end of the season last year, I found this black cat spinner on sale.
At Michael's, I found a kiddie decorating kit that came with a wooden witch and a cat. I colored the cat with Tombo brush markers and attached it with tape to the pumpkin that came with the Welcome sign.
How does your garden grow?

Your Garden is looking good for Autumn. Love the Halloween spinner b the door. I think I need to start looking for my Halloween decorations....Timex is clever! Valerie
It's a good thing Timex is cute
I enjoyed all this pretty photos-especially the carpet of red leaves-which looks like a painting or an idea for my journal
Gorgeous photos of your garden and yard. Love the Halloween decorations, too. Especially that black cat spinner!! ;)
It is amazing how fast the color has come on this past week. But I guess it is that time of year. Love your kitty background here too. I love having some fall fun with Halloween. Oh and I saw a bunny the other day next to the school parking lot. Hugs-Erika
Timex just wanted to make sure he was getting the same seeds as the birds! ;) (Are the mushrooms edible?)
Hope you show your journal if you use the leaf 🍁 🍁 idea
I love the spinner, too and snapped it up when I saw it was on sale last year.
I decided I would decorate the blog according to the Seasons or holiday
Timex is a greedy guts. I doubt the mushrooms are edible. Want to try? 😉
Those Autumn leaves are a joy to see! I saw a meme on Facebook the other day that said, "It's Fall in Memphis, and you know what that means. Nothing!" lol We're still having highs in the 90s. Trees are green, and the leaves that do fall are brown. Thank you for sharing these gorgeous photos! :)
I've never seen dark mushrooms like that. Striking!
Ah, autumn LOOKS like autumn in your world. What glorious colors from the maples and other trees that are turning. Your yard is carpeted with leaves that have also turned the ground an autumn color. It's so much more autumn like in your world right now, than in mine.
I've never seen black mushrooms like that, either. And they weren't there last week.
You'll have your Autumn turn soon enough
The red maple leaves and the mushrooms look so festive.
those mushrooms are cool! i thought they were pine-cones at first.
love your decor!!
'Tis the Season =^..^=
Thank you!
Amazing place you stay. Thanks for sharing all these stunning photos!
Such beautiful autumnal colours! I'm loving your seasonal decorations too, the Flying Lessons sign made me smile 😁. I hope you had a wonderful weekend and wishing you a happy new week! J 😊 x
Thanks for stopping by!
The flying lessons sign and the witch stay up year round (-:
I love Timex! He is so cute! I haven't been out feeding my chipmunks. I think they have disappeared to another yard! Love all the leaves on the ground! Tomorrow, we are suppose to have one of our hottest days! Crazy! I have to cut the lawn again! LOL! Excellent Halloween decorations!! Love the sky photo too! Corolla is adorable!
We're supposed to get a couple of Summer-like days. I'm looking forward to it.
