The chickens helping me harvest the last of the Swiss chard.

 Ready for bed.

 I had help harvesting the beets.

 The hens hoping for treats. Also the end of a week of subtle "big sky" photos.

 Molly was hoping for a ride in the tractor with her most beloved but the steps were too high, so she just chased it down the road for a bit.

 Definitely looks like fall.

Evening walk on the last full day of summer, and it was a beautiful day to end a lovely summer.

 Sandhill Cranes flying so high - they are very noisy and can be heard before seeing them. Quite a few little flocks have been flying east to west for the past two days.

 Sunset.

 September 2026 home photo (we have only had a light frost so far, so there are still flowers).

 The "Seek" app tells me that this is an Elm Oyster Mushroom, and that it was edible, but no one wanted to try it.

 The end of a week of Molly and/or GingerSnap! photos.

 Big girl at sunrise.

 Best friends.

 Cleaning time for GingerSnap!.

 Evening walk (according to the Flightradar24 app the plane that left that trail was flying from Minneapolis to Anchorage).

 Molly was very happy to get a ride in the little truck (she even has a special seat made just for her).

 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.
