Feeling the heat.....

Look in the middle of this photo, on the ground and you will see what I saw yesterday morning. It's a Starling that is feeling the heat and trying to cool off. The little Starling could have been easy pickings by our two kitties, but I ran out to guard him. Here you can see him better. He stayed in this position several minutes and then flew away.

Poor little birdie! Well done Flower! :0)
Enjoy your heat wave...
We went to church and back and have stayed in our little air conditioned condo all day.

Poor thing! I saw a hummingbird flying in and out of a sprinker this week!

We waited until almost dark and took our walk. Of course, Mike stayed until almost 7pm and we ate Coldstone ice cream...

Oh it's been so hot here too! I hate it.

How sweet of you to stand guard to protect the poor little hot guy.

Hugs to you
