I am a crappy blogger. :(

So it has been almost four months since my last post. I know this. You know this. We both know this, OK? Do I have a good reason for not blogging all summer? Not really. Do I feel guilty about not blogging all summer? Yes. Have I witnessed something/done something/heard something and thought, "I should blog about this!"? Yes. Did I ever do anything about it? No.

Hence...

I am a crappy blogger. :(

But I do have a lot to share from over the summer...the tomato blight, the bumper crop of peppers, the GIANT pumpkin, and the like. I just need to sit down and devote some time to a seasonal summary and then get back to my backyard observations. Sure the gardening dies down, but the birding certainly picks up! There's no reason why I can't "relaunch" Backyard Beth's Observations this fall!

Therefore, my goal is to post here, on this blog, a summary of the summer's events (to the best of my knowledge and recollection) by next Wednesday, October 7th. After than (and possibly even before), I will resume regular, substantive posts about the flora and fauna at the homestead...if for no one else but me and my one RSS feed subscriber (he knows who he is). :)

Until next time, keep your eyes open for wild wonders...
