Mr Moo feels that this Halloween puzzle does NOT have enough cats (only one) but is pleased by the quantity of birbs and flappy things. Fairly easy to work one's nails in and buckle a section or even flip a piece into your mouth for a quick nibble. Pleasant for napping as well. He gives this a 6.2 treats out of 8. But the chicken kind of treats not the tuna ones.

Really enjoyed this one (the extra piece was an unexpected treat). Mr. Moo was happy that our puzzle table is back for the fall/winter season! 😻

It's year three for this Endless Summer in zone 5b (Maine). Last fall and this spring, out of sheer hydrangea naïveté I did EVERYTHING wrong, pruning & protection-wise. I knew it would be a growth but no blooms year. But surprise! These 2 blooms peeking out the back side make me think next year is going to be extra...

(Also, this one and her two sisters are easily 3' tall this year--did not expect that and glad I planted to give them all extra room!)

ETA: Changed 5' to 3'; they're hip-high on this short gardener!

Two Eastern tiger swallowtails (P. glaucus) decided to stop frolicking in the lilacs and take the party closer to home.

Getting some practice in and ofc my first pic has to be the dapper Mr. Moo.
