Last Day Of Summer Goes Out With A Bang As Fall Sweeps In .

Well this is the last day of summer and it is going out with a bang . The heat and humidity is awful here ,the winds are blowing but not cool as they to are warm and the sun is shining for now so it adds to the heat and the humidity .

This last day of summer is also sending us a bad rain  storm with high winds  that could become so gusty and damaging later this afternoon into the evening so I have been busy this morning preparing for that just incase .

Miggs and I went for our walk this morning and man oh man was it muggy out at 8am in the morning  YUK! They say that after this last day of summer storm we will be into  cool  fresh fall weather which is I believe the first time in years we have had fall weather on the first day of fall which is tomorrow Saturday 22nd , I am looking forward to the cool down and to be able to open my windows up to fresh cool air .

The yard has been a combination of busy and not busy , some flowers that are still in bloom have had bees all over them just covered in pollen .

The  Monarchs for the best part have been flittering through as they are on their journey south toward the tip of lake Erie as they cross over it  as well has lots and lots of the yellow and white Cabbage moths . The birds have been taking cover during the day from the heat and like to feast early in the mornings and later in the evenings . Our hummers have now migrated and so that is all our summer birds gone on their journey south as well.  Some of our fall birds have returned as others will slowly return as the fall season gets deeper into the next month or so.

Because of all the humidity the early  mornings have been foggy and the grasses wet which as soon as the sun comes out that makes it more humid  as all that moister rises .

  And that also can create some amazing dew drops on spider webs causing them to be seen easier .

And when the fog breaks and the sun does burn through it all the sun rises are magnificent over the valley .

The clear late evenings as the moon rises has been amazing as well , this is from Tuesday evening and there will be a full moon come this Monday 24th  hope it is clear then to .

Well as we prepare for one season to end and another to start I will now be on my way here as we hunker down for the summer to go out with a bang later in the form of a storm and say goodbye to it and to say hello to Fall  as it sweeps in after the storms with its cool fresh air .

                                                                              Welcome Fall

                                                                                   Until next time .
