What's rain, precious?
Midwest in August = drought. On the good side, fewer West Nile infected mosquitoes mean the blue jays are finally coming back!!
NW in August is usually dry too... it’s weird to even have this overcast. It’s been a rather odd summer. We don’t usually get rain at all in July or August.
We had a big storm yesterday and I expected another today... it was way humid earlier but now it’s sunny so who knows.
It just occurred to me that I’ve hardly seen any crows this year! I wonder if they were thinned out by West Nile. I know that some dead crows were found to have the disease last year.
