Start with the moon and end with the moon!

At first, let me show you the surrounds as I worked in the garden today. Admittedly only light work as the sitting around is getting to me! The birds also visited as usual, but a trick took place behind my back!
Let me show you!

I planted some succulents in my private corner garden but look what's happening behind my back!
Little Troy (our doggie) is digging in a pot plant and a Loerie youngster is on the fruit tray!

A Hadeda Ibis came whoosing over my head!

Whilst a Glossy Starling sat in the tree eyeing the fruit tray!

Look! A new visitor! This young Loerie came to sit very close and I had to ask him for a photo!

And here is another little visitor that landed on my foot!

Finally, this moon signaled the end of my day in the garden.

Whenever one works in the soil, a loving sense of "everything will be alright" envelops one. A sense of peace and belonging. The smell of the soil is a lure to longing and the sounds of the birds evoke a soft internal humming.
Childhood memories of playing in the mud bounces around in the mind and a sense of serenity erupts in the soul.
I for one am happy when I work in the soil and it gives meaning to my existence to manage the earth!
