Nasty hot muggy day. I know most of you in the US are having the same thing, so I don't expect sympathy. I just don't do humidity very well.
But it was hot enough to get me over to Hackert Lake for a swim. I'm SO out of shape! But the water felt good, and I'll work on building up the stamina.
Here's a picture of a catbird I took a couple of days ago. They usually hide in the bushes, so I feel really lucky to catch a picture.
They can be good mimics, but usually they just make a noise like a mewing cat. When I first saw it, it was actually standing in the parking lot. I knew instantly what it was because they often hold their tails cocked upward at a jaunty angle like a huge wren. It's a really odd posture for a large-ish (robin sized) bird.
Tomorrow... resort cleaning day again.

Nice shot of the catbird.
ReplyDeleteIt sure has been a scorcher lately. Even though it's unfinished, the basement is dry and a great place to be during the heat of the day.
You got a good picture of the catbird. It's sticky hot here too but right now it's looking like we might get a little rain
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the shy Grey Catbird, Joan!
ReplyDeleteThey are super great singers.
You should be glad you aren't in Georgia. We are having a major heat wave.:(
Chuck- I'm glad you have a place to be cool
ReplyDeleteAnn- I hope you get rain, and that you didn't have the bad winds.
Jean- I really couldn't live in the South
