How about some recent critters in my world?
This is the flicker that has been hanging around the deck. He comes to the birdbath, walks on the deck floor and perches on this bar. I've never had a flicker come so close to the house before.
One of the days we were out doing trail work we found this clean painted turtle on the trail. It's quite a ways from any water. Seemed a little odd, but a nice find.
Another visitor that is usually closer to water. This is a female Common Whitetail dragonfly. She was posing on a rock in the rock garden. You can see a male in the link below.
And here's quite an oddity- a black cat calmly sauntering through the driveway. I have no idea where it lives. I haven't seen evidence of a feral cat in our broken outbuildings lately.
I worked in the morning and had a Zoom meeting in the afternoon. Managed a few minutes in the gardens, but don't expect a lot from me this week. I don't do heat well. Mostly I sipped cold drinks and read a book. Tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter. I have a couple of jobs I can do in our basement where it is cooler.
