I love volunteers. They are the masters of surprise. Last winter I catapulted the 2 rotten halloween pumpkins to the end of the compost bin. The birds enjoyed the seed feast as intended, but they must have missed some...accidentally or on purpose, it was a good thing. There were 4 as a result, 2 little ones and 2 big ones. It was fun watching them turn from green to orange. It was wild how the vines grew so fast ! Sometimes over a foot a day. We had to keep the vines trimmed as they tried to come in the back door. We named her "Audrey" from little shop of horrors. "Has anyone watered Audrey today?" was the call when the weather got so dry in August. They will be returned to their favorite spot late Nov !
