I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving!
This year I am thankful for the beginning of the rainy season. Hopefully this means the end of fire season. Since we had rain, I was able to fertilize my hill which tends to be nutrient deficient. In another week or so, I will sprinkle my wildflower seeds around.
I am also thankful for the opportunity to observe wildlife in my garden which is one of my favorite pastimes.
Let’s begin with turkeys enjoying the garden!
During the last couple of weeks, the Bohemian Waxwings and Robins have been frequent guests.

I cannot find my Western skink pictures so you may enjoy the link. It is an unusual looking lizard with a blue tail that I see periodically in the spring and early summer.
Princess also enjoys nature watching. She spotted my neighbor’s black cat. You might be able to see him and his tail on a step.
While there are some areas of my garden that need some fine-tuning, I am thankful that after two years my garden looks pretty established. I am also thankful for year-round flowers.
Osteospermum, or African daisies, come back to life as summer ends.
I am thankful for the Saturday Morning Garden Blogging Community!
