Melanie, thanks for posting that site!

Nice capture Lin!

The birds tell much if we will listen. The other day the cat was laying out in the catnip in the cottage garden. He's been doing a lot of that lately, just laying around, getting high!! Suddenly I heard a bird making a sharp sound that made me wonder what was wrong. Sure enough that cat was sitting right next to one of the hummingbird feeders!! The distress call stopped as soon as I took the cat inside. He just lost his catnip privilege!

On a nicer note, yesterday evening we turned the sprinkler on the tomato garden and the birds dropped out of the trees like leaves where they enjoyed the sprinkles. It's been hot here lately, and looks like we will be doing more evening sprinkling. I tried but no pictures this time.
