Atempting to keep compost pile dry during the rains

I initially thought this was a rove beetle but now not so sure. found in my compost heap today.

thanks to Don and Patrick for IDs

And the bits that would *never* decompose. How'd they get in the compost heap?

These self portraits were taken with 20-25sec exposure in the middle of a bright sunny day in front of a window. Sun needs to be able to backlight the subject and the intended texture. The subject must have its front in extremely diffused light. Subject must stay in frame for a majority of the exposure & then drop out to create layering effect. I approached this task focusing on avoiding editing. I was able to achieve this & only had to touch up minor stray foliage leaks.

There is no real divide between humans & nature. How can they be so ignorant?

I mashed about in the back yard & woods, then decided to turn the big compost pile. Added stuff from to small bins. Inner core steaming! Wow!

I didn't turn my compost at all last winter and it froze. I'm gonna keep turning this winter to have garden compost early spring :)

Really something to see what looks like a pile of snow, is actually food & leaf waste breaking down to essential elements, high nutrient dirt.

Woo! We cleared the jungle out from this side of the house, hauled it away and built this over the last two days. It still needs a little bit more done to it but it's just about ready for throwing compost into.

It's approx 8x3 foot.. and I think it's maybe 2 foot high? I forget how tall.

There will be probably two more smaller ones as well

After deadheading peonies, I decided to have a little fun.
