Bat: Found under my car a few days ago. I picked it up with cardboard and moved it into shade and foliage on the north side of the house.
Our fungi hunts were very successful, both Olive and I bagged full canvas bags of both Golden Oysters and Chicken of the woods the day after we got 2/10ths of an inch of rain. [That was last Sunday]
However, when I went to our forest the next day all I found were nasty slugs climbing all over the oysters. Even though that is gross, I thought it was interesting. The slugs love moisture and it makes sense that they would gather just above the lowest part of our narrow valley and steep hillsides to enjoy the moisture.
For your entertainment....
Classica slug dance -> video is 15 seconds long.
We have misty humid mornings
and 35% humidity by early afternoon with brown/blue skies.
The colors of the morning sunrise are orange.
The evenings just fade away...
With poor air quality and intense heat, not much is going on around here. My days consist of getting things done outdoors before noon.
Happy Summer to everyone. This summer is sure and odd one.
