The sun is well up. Birds are singing. The hummingbird wars continue. The coolness of yesterday morning is fading into memory like a barely remembered dream.

The promised rains keep teasing us on an almost daily basis. Thunder, lightning, a bit better breeze… and then 5 minutes of lite rain and just more thunder and lightning.

Woodpeckers and cardinals, blue Jays and Carolina wrens, hummingbirds and dragonflies… so goes the morning. Squirrels scamper up and down the trees.

I started this muse late. It’s even later now. It’s a good thing my schedule isn’t full of things needing done…

Y’all stay safe, stay healthy, and Pray for our Nation and the world. And wear a damn mask out in public… even if you believe the President**.
