Surveying the Property (So to speak)

I had my camera with me today as I walked around. I saw several snakes. I guess they're all garden or garter snakes, but they are different in color and markings. I noted that something chomped off the hosta plants on the corner of the house.  That might be a woodchuck, but the stems are high, as is the tall jewel weed plant.  So I suspect a deer or maybe a bear.  See:   (There are also pics of my outdoor array of plants in the back, of my front "garden" where I have a single potato plant, an onion, and some sunflowers as well as incipient morning glories struggling to find a place to climb. I didn't know what seeds I was trying to plant. The others didn't germinate. I moved Dorothy's pomegranate tree outside. Hope the varmints stay away. If the grapevine didn't get blight as it has for the past 10 years, you can see what a grape harvest there'd be. I used to make grape juice and grape jelly back in its productive years. I don''t know why I have 2 of these junctures on the side of the house. One is for fuel, I think.
