RAIN ON THE FARM

/> I went out into the garden this morning, between showers, to gather up a fresh bunch of flowers for the kitchen.  The cooler temperature is welcome after days of hot and humid.  The garden got a needed dose of rain.  There is no replacement for rain in the garden to make it look fresh.
A delightful surprise was discovered in my foray.  A pair of Brown Thrashers were gathering up bits and bobs of dry grass, and twigs, then flying up into the weeping Katsura tree.  I am pretty sure that a nest is in the making.  I will keep observing, but keep my distance, I would hate to foil the attempt by coming in to close.
