That's what the thermometer showed when I went out to plant seeds. I faded fast. But before that I saw another skink and two butterflies, a black swallowtail and a cabbage white. The dog saw an egret and announced his displeasure. I don't think he would have noticed it if it hadn't been in flight.
Bumblebees were thick, especially on the money plants, and one tried to intimidate me but I knew it was bluffing. Birds, however, were scarce. For all the black swallowtail egg laying, I couldn't find any caterpillars yet. The yellow rose opened and a coral lily bloomed. A black ground beetle spread his hard front wings but didn't fly. This early heat has plants and animals out of sync.
