I went out early in the morning to fork the ends of the just-cut hay into a baling row
When a skein of geese flew overhead. This is an old photo, but it looked like this. All loud and wonderful.
Is Autumn coming soon?
Lots and lots of summer birds are leaving our area, over 40, 000 in one night.
This is August. And the days are HOT. (103-105*) BUT —- HOPE is on the horizon.

You must be in a FLYWAY! I love when they can count the birds but weather reports fail miserably 🙂

I hope the hay dries soon and you can get it baked. And may it rain or snow in the mountains.

Once we get these fields in and sold I hope it rains every afternoon!

That was baled, not baked. Autocorrect can be such a pain.

All my songbirds have flown. Only the swallows are left. Once they leave Summer is over.
