The original swimming pool is still intact on the grounds of the circa-1910 Cornish Estate near Cold Spring, N.Y. There had to have been a great view of the Hudson Highlands down the slope before all these trees sprouted.

Nature Recycling, what it made.

Here is a Composting company that runs in Milwaukee.

WEEK 15: APRIL 2008/2010 FLASHBACK – ENTROPY

 

We keep this little metal pail in our kitchen to throw out vegetable matter for compost.

 

I opened it today and thought, since the stuff hadn't decayed all that much, the variety of colors and textures were pretty cool. I thought it would make for an interesting photo for Entropy.

Not the tidiest of gardens, it takes a lot of work keeping it this scruffy LOL.

We get a lot of wildlife though and the compost gets used up every year. Squizzy loves this bit as it is close to the trees and he/she can make his/her getaway. The snow has now gone from the back garden, not so with the front.

Sidewalk bin for compostibles outside a craft ice cream shop in Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood. (The ginger ice cream was very tasty.)

Remains of Mid-40s Chevrolet coupe permanently residing alongside an abandoned logging road.

I peeked inside and saw a well 'cooked', well sifted, taller than me pile of compost. Brown gold! I said, darn, I didn't bring my bolt cutters!!!

Last night we finally had freezing temperatures. 26 degrees. Enough to kill off the tomatoes, peppers, Mexican petunias and elephant ears. So, after work today I proceeded to cut them all down and turn them into the compost piles.

Tip: Update your camera firmware. You may notice a few stocking stuffers in its return.

Stu ordered a large load of compost. We use it all over the garden. It is very rich in nutrients.

Ptecticus trivittatus - Oct 13, 2021 - BWI Bike Trail

A local field to me has had this compost spread by this incredible machine, produced locally by a farmer from green waste.

More images from our walk to come!

 

These were just lining the compost bin!

Stew and dumplings for lunch today. So much rain that going out to get a photo wasn't an option.

Well, I was surprised to note these mushrooms perched atop my neighbor's new compost pile! What a great find! Of course, it is screened from the street. However, my boy MacDuff sought it out on our morning walk, and I followed to see what moved him onward. I'm assuming the population of raccoons previously resident in our night time gardens, has been decimated by the owl population, also night hunters. So I may attempt another compost pile myself. It has been almost a year since my sleep was interrupted by the dogs barking at a night foray of coons.....I had to stop feeding birds, stop composting too. Perhaps the time is right to resume both????

Oh wow, these look so good and then I blow up the image, but there is a lack of focus in the detail of the surface. I am disappointed by this, for I saw it with my eye.....and it is not here THAT WAY......yeah, the iPhone 11 ProMax is about to retire, methinks. The texture of mushrooms is a matter of some importance in this world, right?

Plastic bags in the organics bin.,

Despite signs everywhere, "No Plastic Bags", people continue to do this.

 

Garden Village, Burnaby, British Columbia

Very spring-like today and the bank voles emerged from the compost heaps to forage. Although they do come out in the winter, their appearances tend to be brief and furtive. Today, however, they had brand new nettle leaves to chew on. Myodes glareolus

a charming little wood mouse on our compost heap - note I'm using the 100mm macro lens - I was about 2-3 feet away, and it wasn't concerned at all.

A local farmer runs a green waste recycling centre.After its treatment he then stores it in the local fields for a few weeks before spreading,as seen.

Compost here. Get your hot compost while it is fresh!

 

Oh!, me, me, me. I want some.

Al pomeriggio invece la situazione è risultata migliore, infatti nonostante i 34° C che segnava il termometro della macchina c'era una bell' aria temperata che restando all'ombra della vegetazione del curvone di Rigoroso rendeva gradevole il soggiorno....qui però il sole schiacciava alla grande mentre transitava l' E483.021 di APS per conto Serfer al traino dell' MRS 50357 AL Smistamento - LI Calambrone composto da cisterne VTG

 

how could i disturb this lovely display in order to put the vegie scraps in the compost bin?

 

by the way, one of these days i will post a successful photo of INSIDE the compost bin - i really do have a great compost happening at the moment!
