It's hot and humid but the temperature is supposed to drop tonight as the wind swings around to the NW. It rained hard mid-morning, but nothing much since. I've seen a few bird shadows but haven't heard any singing because the window is closed.
K took me out on the patio in the late afternoon after things had dried out a bit. The clouds were moving fast. I saw a robin, a mockingbird, and a gull. The gull looked slender but didn't sound like a laughing gull. I heard an osprey calling. The mockingbird sang beautifully. I'll have to ask K to bring the camera the next time. I forgot to mention, some really big bumblebees were working on the pungent flowers in the landscaping shrubbery.
Last night was supposed to be a lunar eclipse but the cloud cover prevented local viewing. Tonight will be dark too, I expect.
