When we are in contact with nature, you become part of them until the moment you are recognized as part of them, even the animals recognize me and can see how this beautiful and colorful butterfly makes contact with me through its antennae, she is sure that I will not harm her, it is impressive how they react to my presence.
In the middle of winter
The same thing happens when I walk through the garden every day in the morning and in the afternoon, it is as if they were waiting for me, I can notice it when I approach them, it is a mystery that leads me to know that as living beings they also feel and suffer. At the moment it is raining a lot because we are in the middle of winter but nevertheless in spite of there being a lot of grass I still went to take a look at them and I was surprised as this beautiful watermelon plant did, the poor thing has revived from the inclement attacks of the snails.
Watermelon plant in full growth
My plants are enjoying this winter season, this blessed rain that makes the plants beautiful with their intense green foliage, the fruit plants have been surprising me, like the guanabana plant, topochos, cambures, I get lost in such a small conuco as our ancestors used to call them.
The special thing about a garden is that I can have all kinds of plants, from medicinal to ornamental, I love the latter very much because it is full of many animals such as birds, butterflies, bees, crickets, when we plant fruit plants we enjoy their crops, and medicinal plants also enjoy their benefits, not only our family, but the neighbors, this is a great blessing to taste and enjoy.
Those of us who have a garden at home, know that we enjoy an earthly paradise that every day surprises us with its beauties, these spaces are the best thing that has happened to me, the hard part of winter is having to deal with the snails that have eaten me and damaged some plants, especially the creeping fruit trees, with the exception of the watermelon that every day I go out to see how it is developing despite having this pest, which every day multiply more.
We will have to learn to live with them very much in spite, they come out especially at night to eat whatever they find on their way, something very curious that happened to me as an anecdote, I was reading on the internet a way to kill these snails, was to spray with eggshells, I took and kept many egg shells, I turned them into shreds and sprayed them in the garden, to my surprise one of the many mornings I went out to take a look and to my surprise the birds were eating the egg shells, when it is not one thing it is another, hahahaha, no way that is part of nature.
This is called in contact with nature from my garden, I hope you visit me and can take a look at this post, Blessings to all, I send a warm greeting to all these beautiful people who love gardens, those who make life in the community
