Sunset

Taken without a flash.
Taken with a flash.Overall the weather Saturday was amazing, warm, nice. All day Sunday it was rainy and gross. Probably great for the gardens.
Unfortunately I have not gotten into the gardens much in the last three months. A new baby certainly occupies a lot of time and even when I want to be free, and have a few minutes to myself I tend to spend then"relaxing" in front of the TV.
I don't get out much but I do still take Grady for walks around the yard with the Dogs. I have noticed there are very few birds here and that is a little disturbing. I can contribute much of it to the nearby construction but it is really sad. Every so often we can smell burning plastic and I guess someone nearby is not very environmentally educated. Perhaps our area is a little unwelcomming right now. Since we cut our feild most of the summer the Meadow Larks went away. I wasn't suprised but I am saddened. I'm only one lawn and I think even if I stopped mowing it would not be enough habitat. Same with Eastern Bluebirds. Killdeer still wander around here but I havn't seen Barn Swallows all summer. It is eery.
