Trying to throw logs onto the pile, and GingerSnap! showed up to get in the way help.

 Starting to feel like fall.

 Full nesting boxes.

 One of the fallen trees to clean up after yesterday's storm (the most trees that have fallen at one time since we have lived here).

 A storm passed through late this afternoon (thunder/lighting, hail, wind and over an inch of rain).

A stack of bales we saw on our bike ride.

Miss Maggie joined us on our evening walk.
 

 Gardening companion.

 Asters are in bloom all around the yard (these purple ones are Smooth Blue Asters).

Noisy Blackbirds (maybe Cowbirds) coming out of the bull rushes around the pond in the field.

 Dot - she gets very mad if you touch her, and will peck, but she always has to be right there keeping an eye on things.

 The chickens know when I have a treat for them and run out to greet me.

 Red moon just over the horizon this evening.

 It was impressive to watch Molly walk over the rebar grid (getting ready for a cement pad).

 Waiting for the lunar eclipse (this is through the telescope).

Update - around 11pm almost at the peak of the eclipse (again through the telescope).

 Harvested the grapes today, and made jelly.

 Sunrise.

 Beautiful sunrise this morning.

 The hens are huge fans of the zucchini and cucumbers that get too big in the garden (we feed them and they feed us). Sparkle and Penny in the photo.

 The chickens joined us on our evening walk for a bit.
