I can’t take the temps like I could years ago. Now I have to start early and knock off about 10 due to the heat and humidity.

Right now we have 18%, that is low for hot weather. It hurts when it gets to 95/95!

My wife an I usually go out for a few minutes after supper to refill bird feeders and look around. I was watching my wife through the dining room windows yesterday evening scattering bird seed by hand around the patio outside the windows where the fountain is now. She looked like Mother Nature, feeding her children!

We have a van size debris pile out back from the ice storm, and I saw an unusual bird back there today. He/she runs more than flies. It saw me and ran across the street, when I saw me and Scooter coming toward him/her, it took off running up the street about 50yds away, turned and looked me square in the eyes, then took to running further and took a rt turn down the next street like it knew where it was going. I broke off the chase because he/she was too fast for Scooter, and I wasn’t interested in terrifying the bird, either.
