Some of the house orchids are blooming. These two specimens were rescued after they were tossed in the garbage after being staged for a house viewing. What does it say of our society that we so easily use and discard living organisms? #berkeleyadventures

Last night’s visitors include a doe and her two fawns. Saw her early on in the season and then not for a long while. Glad to see the little family is doing well. #BackyardCritters #berkeleyadventures

Yesterday I learned, unsurprisingly, that chickens like salami. Also that having lunch with the chickens is an absolute trip and a delight. #Sheila #Pterry #MarieAntoinette #HappyLittleDinosaurs #berkeleyadventures #BackyardChickens

Looking forward to seeing the blue pantalooned bees now that the Gilia are beginning to bloom. #BackyardBlooms #berkeleyadventures
