On top of the world

Mr. Gila woodpecker is standing guard over the saguaro. But leave it to the female house finch to ignore him and do her own thing. The morning light on them was nice and warm.

Nothing going on today other than the usual Sunday stuff like laundry. It has really piled up so will need several loads. Also watching the baseball game. That's the beauty of baseball. It's a slow enough game that you can multitask.

Just like most of the west coast, and parts of the east, it's sweltering. A few days ago, Tucson was hit with an F1 tornado and yesterday a microburst came out of nowhere.  Reno brother lost power yesterday for over 4 hours which made them miserable without a/c. It can always be worse.

Mr. and Mrs. Morrison were on a safari in Africa.
As they were walking through the jungle, a huge lion comes creeping out towards them, ready to pounce.
"Shoot!" Mrs. Morrison screamed to her husband. "Shoot!!"
"I can't!" he yelled back. "My battery is dead."
