I LOVE this time of year!
The sun is not shining yet, but it is light enough to get around and see where you are going.
All the birds are chirping, waiting for Matt to put the bird feeders back out!
We have to bring them in at night because the raccoons always tear them down at night to get to the sunflower seeds! They've broken two of them so far, so now we bring them in.
I think we in the Downeast part of Maine have the first sunrise in the USA on the Summer Solstice! I will see daylight at around 3:45 am to 4 am.
we have very long days this time of year. Longer days than in Florida near my parents and sister!
at the Winter Solstice, we only have around 8 hours a day of sunlight! It is downright depressing!
the common Grackle, not crackle are early risers here as well, along with the crows, and as you...the Cardinals are early risers too.View attachment 947132
I feel your pain.....I could have guided bear hunts off my deck!
This time of year I just toss some feed on the ground a couple times a day. Not so much because of the bear but the damn Crackles will eat-out a feeder in a day.
It's funny, the Cardinals are always waiting in the morning and evening when I toss some feed out.
its only going to be 100F today out here....It's daylight...4:28 Am! The birds are chirping! No sun yet but you can see enough to get around outside!
It's 50 degrees, and only an expected high of 66F today,
But tomorrow we have a heat wave coming in with a high of 86F!!!
It's just too hot where you are Harry! You're in Vegas now, right? I used to go to Vegas once a year for the WSA, western (shoe) show of America.... All I gotta say is thank the good Lord for Air Conditioning....its only going to be 100F today out here....
im quite used to it.....when it hits 110 plus is when it is hot.....It's just too hot where you are Harry! You're in Vegas now, right? I used to go to Vegas once a year for the WSA, western (shoe) show of America.... All I gotta say is thank the good Lord for Air Conditioning....
and add thanking Him for Maine too!

Every winter for the last three years we've been spending 3 to 4 months in the winter in Florida with my older sister and parents.... It's lovely that time of year! One of those winters we stayed in Florida through March and boy oh boy, Matt and I regretted it. We were melting in some of the 90° days, they were already getting in March!!! It's a sweaty, humid heat in Florida, vs the dry heat in Vegas....im quite used to it.....when it hits 110 plus is when it is hot.....

It's not that bad when you live here. I was down in Scottsdale last week and joined up with a group that gets together to run a couple of times a week. We did a 6:30 PM 5K run along the Salt River and it was just under 110 degrees.
what a choice....being totally uncomfortable or burning up .....Every winter for the last three years we've been spending 3 to 4 months in the winter in Florida with my older sister and parents....

You lock up your bird feeders at night? It must be a bad neighborhood.
