Summer seems to be here. My ranch sliders are open, the sun streams in and so does the noisy chirruping of the blackbirds. On going outside to see why they are making so much noise, I find Tonks sitting nonchalantly on the fence. She appears to be totally oblivious to the consternation she has provoked!

The days sure are ticking by. Today was one of those “4 seasons in one day” sort of days. Typical Springtime. There’s a pair of blackbirds that are busy building a nest in one of the trees in our garden. I see them hopping across the lawn with bits of twig and grass and foraging in the compost bin. It’s too difficult to get a photo of them though so today’s pic is the sky darkening just before another downpour.
