Hot Summer Day

Greetings! This is The Daily Bone and I'm your earnest doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel. 


Today was a classic hot summer day! 90º and muggy.


The sky was filled with big, puffy, white clouds!


And the garden is full of flowers.

Daisies

Roses

Foxglove

The first lily (with a hover fly on it)

Milkweed, with a honey bee


Hey, what's this? Snow in July?


Nope. It's just the petals falling off the hawthorn tree blossoms.


The bright sun is making me squint!


I think I'd better go inside where it's nice and cool.

Ah, that's better!

My ghostwriter has to work tomorrow. So we're wishing everyone a happy 4th of July today!




Here's a reminder for pets on this holiday from our friends at zoolatry.

  3. Happy Independence Day Chester and family! It sure has been hot and sticky around here.

    To answer your question about the upside down suet feeder it does prevent some birds from using it but I'm not sure about the grackles. We don't have any of them around our yard. It does keep the crows from using it.

  9. Its been muggy and way too hot around these parts, too. We sure are glad the AC got fixed just in time.phew!

    Your blooms are so pretty!

    We do a lot of 'lollygagging' around o these hot days too. Even the peeps decided the AC and a TV was a better option to see the fireworks, BOL! They did go to the air show for a wee bit...and saw the F22! Earplugs, please...
