That heatwave earlier was terrible... I think the Pacific Northwest was the only part of the country that wasn’t hot red on the weather map. Both the Parks you visited look great....can’t blame the birds for hiding out during those temps.

All your pictures came out pretty good. You have so many birds there it keeps me wanting to see more. I like the stamp book idea. I should pick one up and then I will have it on hand once this horrible weather leaves and I can start start traveling again.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-36902128062150750722019-07-28T19:59:32.188-04:002019-07-28T19:59:32.188-04:00I think you are very brave - or very foolish, perh...I think you are very brave - or very foolish, perhaps, to venture abroad in those conditions. I think I would hibernate for the summer. In the winter it doesn't matter how cold is I can layer up and stay warm, but it is impossible to escape the kind of heat you are experiencing.David M.

Last Thursday it was 30C here and I was looking for shade all day.<br />Great photos of the ponds.<br />I've just been reading about the diet of Mallards and they will eat virtually anything thats going even frogs and small birds, I was surprised.<br />Cool showers in the heatwave especially before bed are a must.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047342243577979820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-84627120144795607062019-07-28T10:08:22.125-04:002019-07-28T10:08:22.125-04:00Phew too hot!!
