Great Name
But it’s not a pool player or rock star. It’s a weather pattern.
This satellite image shows the source of the “June Gloom” that visits the sunny, southern California beaches every summer. Here is more from the CIMSS satellite blog.
Fresh Worker Bee
This bee
has a few flowers to visit before her leg pouches are full. One of
these days, I will learn the names of these trees, bushes, and flowers
that I take so many pictures of.
This tree,
(whatever it is named), by the A building stairwell, is exploding with
colors. It was fun shooting up toward the sky with the bare branches of
the big oak tree in the background.
This little guy
has been hanging out behind A building for a few days now, just singing
his heart out. I enjoy his song that includes variations of all that he
has heard, as well as his normal singing bird calls.
I can hear
frogs, the kids that yell and cry while playing in the cul de sac, some
of the residents yelling at their dogs, and even a little bit of the
raven/crow sounds, all included as part of his love song. What a
fascinating world we get to experience and share.
I am reading a new book called, “The Genius Of Dogs”, by Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods.
It is quite
a thorough investigation, that takes the reader to the trail of dog
‘self domestication’ from as far back in earth history as a James Michener novel.
I think
the smoothly written, meticulous attention to relevant scientific
research is essential, because this book debunks most everything we
thought we knew about dogs, (and natural selection, too).
This bud is
the only one I found today among the driveway roses. It will be fun
watching it develop. There are no other buds, yet, on any of the rose
bushes here at the Treehouse. This one will get lots of lens time.
There are still plenty of bare trees to decorate the sunsets.
I just looked
at the time, 12:25 AM. I still haven’t caught up. My now, now, seems to
be dragging a foot in the then, leaving me slightly behind the when.
Yet, it is my now, now, so I had best prepare for the morning version of
now that I will visit in a few hours.
Whew! I sure am glad I cleared that up.
