It is June “Oh what is so rare as a day in June.” (James Russell Lowell), a poet wrote those words. “Happy Birthday” to Janet Brown (my sister), also Julie Cole, and all June birthdays and anniversaries.

We've had a couple of really nice days, a couple of hot days and a couple of windy days! We had a sprinkling of rain and lightning. More rain, less heat is what I'm praying for! My flycatchers are back in their new nest under the roof of the deck! I haven't looked to see how many eggs yet. I can do it without causing the parents alarm by using one of those gadgets with a telescoping wand and a small mirror on the end! I'll report back on the progress. I hope they make it this year!

I don’t know why I’m so enamored with snakes, but they’ve had a hold on me since I was a kid. They still do. Last week at the cabin I saw our 10-month-old springer Dot cautiously approach something in the yard. About the time I thought “snake,” it struck at her, missing by a foot, but putting her in retreat. It was a big, beautiful bull snake, vividly marked in gold and black and green. I was thrilled to have such a magnificent creature in my yard. Growing up, the only snakes in my yard were...
