There are a few Asters blooming here and there and a couple of Coneflowers.
It rained most of the day yesterday. The wind blew and leaves rained down along with the rain. We watched Deer in the yard and a bunch of Common Flickers that must have used our lawn for a rest stop on their migration South. It looked like they were snacking on ants!!
I did some housework and began painting the Christmas ornaments.
Good bye September.

Wish you could send some of that rain our way. We have had no measurable since July 12
It would make me happy to learn that flickers ate up all the ants. Yes, goodbye September!
It sure is sad seeing them finish up!
The coneflowers are so hardy - they always amaze me when they stick around in the cold!
The seasons are changing that's for sure. Enjoy Fall, my friend.
We got another good rain in the evening and overnight. Coneflowers and phlox are still blooming.
I'd be happy to see the flickers munching on the ants.
We reached a low of 1C/34F. I still haven't cleared my annual containers, but now I'm wishing I'd done it earlier as it is going to be a chilly job.
The coneflower is so pretty!
After a lovely week in the low 70's here in Ohio, we are heading into summer weather in the high 80's for the first week of October! Time to gather the cardigans back in the drawer and shave my legs.
They say rain is heading in for a couple of days here. We do need it.
My hydrangea flowers are hanging on like your coneflowers, but...their demise will happen soon what with the calendar turning to October. The rain was so much here I thought I would need canoe paddles! Have a wonderful October!!!
Was nice to hear thunder! I do love a rumbling thunderstorm. :)
Where did the month go? I guess I will just face it. I have one cone flower that is going to bloom soon. We are so hot today. I see you were getting rain.
Fall rain and wind can put an end to many things in a hurry.
September came and went soo quickly didnt it...
Im happy we still have summer flowers left in our garden too... but I do love Autumn

Rain all day here today but the sun came out at the end. We bought a beautiful orange and yellow mum and dumped our geranium today. Hope we all have a good October!
It was 95F here today and is supposed to be in the 90's for a couple of more days before getting significantly cooler by the end of the week. I can't believe we have the A/C on in October!
Blessings,

There are a few last coneflowers blooming here too. I'm hoping for many sunny days in October. Fall seems such a short season :(
Must have been great being able to watch all those birds in your yard :)
Send us some rain. We’re in a dust bowl.
We're still warm here...the temps shot up again. You can just see a tint in the trees that they are starting to change and a few leaves floating down occasionally but nothing like what you're experiencing...I wish!
It feels more like August here than October. We were in the high 70s today. The leaves are changing. Soon enough it will be cold!
