Farmer's Market.

8-24-13 VERMONT: We went to the Norwich, VT, Farmer’s Market after the dump run this morning, so Judy could look for a couple presents to bring back to NJ. The day is a beauty, as the last several have been. There was a full parking lot, big crowd, live music and all the booths and stands were busy. Congrats to the director, our neighbor Steve. Judy found what she needed plus bread and lunch.

On a different note, our local bird population is not the usual mix of species that we get. This summer we have no robins, grosbeaks, woodpeckers, catbirds, blue jays in the yard or at the feeders. We have lots of goldfinches and doves, some red finches, sparrows, chickadees, nuthatches. We are moving a lot of sunflower seeds to the customers we get.

New blooms: purple leaf ligularia.
