Breathlessly hot

 In the morning, titmice joined the regulars.

Thunderheads passed by.  A pair of geese had a Muscovy duck nanny watching their goslings with them.  The house wrens were disputing house ownership and perhaps other matters.  This downy woodpecker checked out a dogwood.  A dove walked around the patio.  Wasps landed on the water for a drink and successfully took off again.  I rescued many beetles and a few spiders.  The sunflowers began to make flower heads.

I saw a mockingbird on the way to a meeting.  On the way back the sky glowed like a furnace.  At home, fireflies were out.  97° - today broke a temperature record set in 1885.
