A Visitor in the Garden!

When going out
to mow...
A wee turtle was found.

We quickly picked it up
and examined it.

Wanting to keep
Turtle safe,
we placed it in 
the enclosed porch, 
while we mowed.

We provided a bunch of 
freshly picked 
lettuce,
while Turtle waited.

At first Turtle didn't want any lettuce.

But, after a few minutes
exploring...
Turtle was ready for his snack!

He was safely returned to garden 
where he happily 
explored the area,
before leaving for greener pastures!

Created Bird Feeder
From
Recycled Water Container

Hung-up along fencing

                                         

                                  

Found branches locally
and cut them up using
garden snips

                                             

Using HOT glue gun
(high temp)
I attached branches to container

With boxcutter blade
and X-acto knife
I made four window openings
(two only shown in pictures)
