We have normal rabbit, squirrel and chipmunk activity here. The doe with fawn grazes on the ivy covering the hill down to the water. Same as last year.
What's different is the lack of birds with color. Fewer cardinal, no goldfinch, red house finch or eastern bluebird. The bird bath is sad. Hummingbird wars continue. Waterfowl appear the same.
The temperatures are around normal but the humidity is crazy. Yesterday is was 92 with an index of 102. It stormed overnight. We've had 5.3" of rain this month. 3.2" is normal. I didn't expect so much gulf influence here in the hills.
