We've got flower gardens mostly. I got some baby bulbs from one of them and planted them in a pot since they were found above ground anyway. They are both thriving.

I have some flower beds, but I don't manage them as well as I probably should. I'm thinking of starting some purposefully planted pollinator beds full of flowers. I much prefer perennials or prolific self seeders. Any suggestions would be welcome.We've got flower gardens mostly.

Marigolds and alyssum have both self seeded well for me. Sunflowers too.I have some flower beds, but I don't manage them as well as I probably should.

I'm so sorry you have contracted the VIRUS @Acre4Me,
I was thinking about turning or old compost bins into pens for rabbits in a similar way. Thanks for the pic. It's great food for thought.Rain and storms for 3rd night in a row. Southern Ohio got some really strong storms, though, so it wasn’t that intense here.
Turned some of the soil in the raised beds, a few more to go. Need to amend with some vermiculite and perlite, but have some left over from last year. The yellow blossom clover has enjoyed the recent rains, but sowing appears a bit spotty in some areas - I guess not surprising since I was hand broadcasting the seeds across the 20x30 bed.
Next 10 days looks to have freezing/near freezing night temps, so we’ve set up the tarp to cover the strawberries at night (with some supports to hopefully keep off the plants). Hopefully that will be the last cold stretch until the fall... I’m hoping anyway!
One of the cockerels was relegated to his solo pen yesterday. He was not happy. Poor guy just gained top cockerel spot from the head cockerel, evidenced by that cockerel keeping to corners with many wounds to his comb. And now this one is by himself in a pen, near the run. We are keeping him to show at fair (if it happens), but we decided he’s not the male we want to keep long term. We will be putting the other younger cockerel in the pen next to him, and keeping the oldest cockerel in the run With the hens/pullets.
here are the two pens we made from our three bin compost area the pens are 6x4 each.

Sorry, my mistake. I’m just glad you are doing well.No, thankfully have not contracted the Corona virus! I either experienced a food issue or a mild, short lived virus. Of course, any anomaly has me worried for a moment or two if it could be the virus, but then I remind myself: dry cough and fever are two common symptoms.
