Late August
Thursday, August 28th, 2025 05:30 pmLate August is bringing cooler weather and earlier sunsets.
The bird activity is the usual Blue Jays, House Sparrows, Mourning Doves, Downy Woodpeckers. The Turkey family has been consistent visitors and the Mute Swans on the pond also continue to grow.
The garden yielded so-so results. Quite a few peppers, but not many tomatoes.

It's been warm and we had quite a line of thunderstorms come though the night of July 2. We had wind, rain, hail, lightning, with some local gusts up to 70 mph.
Multiple trees or large pieces of trees down near us. I counted 7 in the nearby woods and pond trail. Many power outages over the holiday.
Here is a large part of a tree that just missed our building at work!
Here is more in the woods by my driveway

Some nice sights over the weekend, plus I was able to get some yard and garden work done.
The favorite was a Cardinal family, with the young cardinal following the parents around a begging for seed.
I also saw a Hummingbird. I assume a Ruby throated, it was hard to tell in the low late afternoon light
