Goodbye cool weather veggies - hello Doves!












With the warm weather arriving and getting warmer everyday, our cool season crops are slowing wilting away. While I look forward to tomatoes, peppers, and melons, I'll really miss being able to step into the backyard and pick fresh greens for our meals. They just don't like our Texas summers.























And look! A pair of doves had decided to nest in our persimmon tree - right outside our bedroom window. I commented that their nest looks very unstable. A and I looked up some info, and it turns out that doves are known for making shabby nests - sometimes the eggs fall right through the bottom! Let's hope that doesn't happen to ours!
