Not much rain this week, total 0.16". We seem to have jumped right into summer this week after that system passed with temps climbing into 70s and 80s. Even overnight temps were mostly in the 60s.
Plants are growing, lots of early flowers are blooming - these past couple of weeks have been azalea and rhododendron season - blooming everywhere.
Bird behavior seems to be about raising babies. They're darting in and out of bushes and going on high alert getting close to "their" bushes. I haven't found the nest yet, but robins have claimed the rhododendron in front of the house. The plan to cut the bush back soon can wait a few weeks...
Welcome summer! We will be complaining it's too hot soon enough :)
