Last night I went out to pick up an older Peahen and a Royal Palm Turkey. I had tried to raise both from babies and did not have success. I put them both in the chicken coop with the chickens, ducks and guineas. So far, so good. They seem to like being in the coop more than being out of the coop which really suprises me given it is hotter inside than out and also darker.

Later today, once it begins to cool down, I will head out to the garden to check on the new plants I added. I planted more butterfly bushes, the rainbow knock out rose and a few assorted perennials. I was hoping to get more weeding done before winter but I am not going to hold my breath on that. The weather is either hot and dry or cool and rainy this year and neither of those conditions make good weeding weather.
