The Mound

The grassy mound opposite the house runs below the train line. This piece of land does not belong to the house but is pretty much maintained by us (if you can call it that). We've planted some carrots in barrels and there are wildflowers and garden loosestrife. There is a cherry blossom where I hang seed feeders and fat balls for the birds and the nut feeder attracts siskin which are shown here. This view is taken from the sitting room window.
