If the #gardening#gods are kind to me, the lettuce seedlings will easily transplant to the raised #garden bed when they're big enough to go outside.

cut toilet paper & paper towel rolls into starter cup size, put soil & a lettuce seed in each "cup", will water them from underneath so they can soak up what they need, and transplant them (if they grow) into the raised garden bed when/if they're ready.

The quail on the ground were almost invisible to the camera.
The lookouts were on display, though.
This was probably at least two families with lots of young birds. #BackyardBirds
