Compost

Highs in the mid-forties and sun in the forecast I decided to put the first batch of the season in the tumbler. It'll be awhile, but at least it won't freeze into a chunk in there.

Forking the compost out of the bin, we heard a loud urgent squeaking. I had uncovered a mouse nest. The little one's eyes were still closed. Mama was there too, so hopefully they will all be fine. Stirring the compost up might have warmed things up in there for them too.
