Soggy Sunday

This was my backyard Sunday:

Looks a little dampish.

There's a marsh behind my house, part of Kent's stormwater control. It drains pretty fast, but the water's not supposed to come up this far.

Those poor sunflowers, all keeled over. Bet the bees were pretty annoyed. Spent Monday morning tying the stalks to the fence to keep them upright in the soggy soil. Now the birds can get at them.  The goldfinches love the seeds. See the perimeter defense - that's why I have plenty of tomatoes this year.

 

Note the high water mark on the shed. Dry inside, thankfully.
