Birds are returning to the desert. I went to COSTCO 2 days ago and bought 5 bags of birdseed for $5.99 each. They are the 20 pound ones. Today I'm going to WalMart and buy 2 bags of sunflower seeds for $8.99 each (I think they are 40 pounds?). Anyway the Cooper's hawk is keeping the birds away pretty much now. They fly in early in the morning, stuff themselves, and then leave before he/she swoops down from above.
Hottest day this week will be tomorrow (of COURSE...the day I have to go pick up the granddaughter from school at 1 pm). Then, temps go back down into the low 90's and upper 80's, which are PERFECT DAYS here!
Just a few pics from this summer below: (all photos taken at the Living Desert Reserve here in town)
