My, you are so rich in grosbeaks! They are all so wonderful! And love the whip-poor-will pic and of course the sweet little owl in the new home. Sending every thought your way for a nice wet day or two and a good bit of water for you all. 🌧🌧🌧🌦🌈

Thanks so much Sandy! Really appreciate the good thoughts in this hot, dry place!

Look at the male Rose-breasted Grosbeak apparently the ‘super male’ of birds. Instead of a big letter S stamped on his chest, he wears a big beautiful heart plumage .

A bit disappointed you didn’t mention wearing pajamas in the pre-dawn light. I’ll give you a pass. With the unbearable heat forecasted, minimal wardrobe is best.

Sending you from VT, a cool breeze , foliage damp with rain and a beautiful 55 degrees post sunset. Not trying to make fun, only hope you can close your eyes and feel it for even a moment.

Hoping ‘this too shall pass’ and soon!

Well...what I didn't mention was that I was wearing quite a bit less... Minimal wardrobe indeed!

Looking for the VT coolness to relish in my skin... Thanks for this!

Wishing you rain and a break from the heat, for all the creatures. And that the water truck is fixed and makes a delivery! That whip-poor-will is amazing!

Thanks Karen! I'll take your kind wishes and share them with the whip-poor-wills!
