We were surprised to open the blinds this morning and see what we decided is a red shouldered hawk. Really big. It was drinking water. Impressive to see it take off from the ground that fast and not get tangled in a tree.
Between hawks and snakes, this has been an odd year.
I am thinking of the folks on the east coast and of course the Houston area. They had so much rain (50") that things are still flooded in some areas. Not just the big city, the island of Galveston. I imagine they weren't flooded as badly as cities around Houston.
I checked and the sea wall was not breached. So that may be the reason they have not been the news.
With all the flooding, critters are in the city that normally stay in bayous. Scary. Wouldn't want to be attempting to clean up the damage and run into a snake or alligator.
Now, if only it would cool down again. Too hot to do much in the yard.
