The Month That Was

Our summer is half over!








As I review my phenology calendar for last month, it's the weather that stand out - the rainstorm that brought flooding to our street on July 1...











And two 3-day heat waves - the first starting the same day as the flood. 











A second 3-day heat wave followed two weeks later.

No animals noted on my July 2026 phenology calendar - though squirrels and chipmunks continued to scurry around the yard, and one even stole a few almost-ripe tomatoes from my son's two tomato plants. 

I guess I was too busy with post-flood recovery to notice!
