It’s Wild Fire Time Again; It’s Smoky.
We live in a dynamic environment on a normal day but when the wind blows, the temperature is over 95ยบ F. and it has not rained for a few months it is much more dynamic almost dangerous.

It’s time to establish a pecking order.
That’s a bit odd for me to accept as the Pelican will raid the Gooses eggs but the Canadian will not rob the Pelicans roost. It seems the Canadian would want the larger Pelican out of Dodge; apparently he’s alright with it, who am I to argue about that?

Hummingbirds.
It was as every morning is when I wake up excited to get up and out, it’s the excitement of greeting another day that wakes me a 4am then waiting for the first indication of dawn when my feet hit the deck.

A Few Pictures.
