Hot ! Hot ! Hot ! Too hot for even the obnoxious squirrels. 92 degrees, 54 % humidity and heat index 98 degrees and counting. Four baby Phoebe birds fledged this morning. Jumped right out of their nest at the top corner of the porch, just like mini-paratroopers, and flap-flap, out into the blue sky and forest trees. No looking back, all made it without falling into the huge hydrangea bushes below. We can hear them peeping in the leaves. No greythound news this weekend, it's major nap time in this heat.
