Hard to believe it’s July already!
Not 10 minutes ago, saw a fawn (with spots) in the front field & when it saw me, it ran into the front pasture. There is an old apple tree there & 2 does were eating small green apples that fell off during the storm last night. One of the does is “mom”. My brother saw a doe with twins yesterday, down the road at the creek. There was a large coyote chasing 3 does in the back pasture 2-3 weeks ago so I am glad to see there are 3 fawns it hasn’t gotten yet.
Crows are in the fig bush - figs were still very green last time I looked, so I will have to see if some are ripe & attracting birds.
We had severe thunderstorms around the area last night. Lightning stayed north, but we had one downpour that was almost an inch of rain. This morning, it is wonderfully cool, close to an early fall feel to the air. Tomorrow should be similar, then the high 90’s heat & humidity come back in.
Unless you are well south of the mid Atlantic area, see my comment $43, your figs are probably nowhere near ripe. My largest are only half size, and I still have little ones the size of my pinky nail just starting to grow.
