Quail

The juvenile quail are waiting to get into the pone area.There were lots of little skirmishes and run ins this morning as three diffferent covies of quail came to hang out at the pond area at the same time.

Quail

These are juvenile quail being held back by a momma with 15 or more tiny babies. Seh darts at them as they try to move into the pond area.

Just Peachy

This little peach tree is two years old. It has about 3 dozen peaches almost ripe on it. I have the fruit covered with netting but today I watched as the little antelope squirrels climbed the trunk and were helping themselves to the fruit. I'm going have to harvest tomorrow if I want to enjoy some of the fruit before they get harvested by the squirrels.

Grape vine

The grape vine is finally reaching to the top of the arbor. This is the third year and it was a friend who showed me how to prune that helped me get the vine to go upwards. That's the old bedstead, metal headboard it's growing out on. Lots of grapes this year.

Grape clusters

I have quite a few grape clusters on this vine growing toward my pergala. I'll post pics when they are ripe. These are red flame.

Fat fit

I took a picture of this fat fig before I plucked it and ate it for breakfast. I got Two that morning. Many more to come.

First squash blossum

This morning I found my first squash blossum open in my little circle gardens.
