The car claimed 102°F in the late afternoon. But by firefly time, the temperature was pleasant - warm but not uncomfortable. In the morning, I cut back some overgrown cinquefoil and soon sweat was running into my eyes and dripping off my nose. Thankfully, that stopped when I got into the water.
I had to rescue a mama spider twice because after she dried out she ran back into the water. I also fished out a scarab beetle of some sort. A whole slew of drowned roaches were circling on the current. Dragonflies resumed their flights across the yard, but some dropped out to rest on a perch. Bees celebrated the flowering of the lavender.
We put fresh juice out for hummers, but they didn't stay long. That feeder lacks perches and it was windy.
