Back Yard Pics

Thought I'd take a couple of snaps of my garden today. It's still looking really beautiful, if a little overgrown. The best part is that it doesn't require a lot of maintenance. Just mow the lawn, fill the bird feeder, and clean out the pond filter every once in a while. The recent rain's been good too -- the lawn was starting to look a little patchy, but I've not used any chemicals or sprays on it. Aside from being expensive, I don't like the impact that all these chems have on the environment (and let's be honest, I've got maybe 100 sware feet of lawn in there -- what do I care what happens to it?)
