lynn_d your kitty looks so much like my TC that I lost a year ago on the 29th of this month. Kittywhiskers

Jasdip we've had a very hot summer which we are all loving. Highs of 30 in the day (not all days, but several and it's usually above 23 in the day) and very little rain. Lawns are turning brown - a downside to all the hot temps. It's unusual for us here in eastern Newfoundland to have such warm temperatures (western and central Newfoundland always have warmer summer temps than we do). I think we've only had rain 1 afternoon in the past two and a half weeks!

Spring migrants are wandering through the area; been enjoying the many warblers, grosbeak, and less common birds, such as Swainson's thrushes. Even this western tanager has been hanging around for the past few days. Not my best photograph ever, as I had to take it quickly from some distance away, out of an upstairs window. Put I think he is a beautiful bird, even a bit fuzzy. ;)

I snapped this of myself yesterday while riding back home, from Stockyard City, here within OKC.
