aging gracefully in the ferns

while fall slips out the side door I tidy up the backyard. bags of old ferns recently lined the curb and with them gone I can closely inspect a birdhouse that is usually hard to reach.

the house seems in good shape but I'll take it down anyway. I think I'll put it on a higher pole and use its front porch as a winter bird feeder. it will do double duty as it ages.

I hope I age as gracefully.

minus the mildew.
