It has been oppressively hot and humid here. There has been quite a mosquito bloom as well. The greenheads have subsided but the mosquitos have taken over.

The blog has become somewhat conflated as BOIDS and Mammals tend to mix and take advantage of the Koi Pond. If they are at the Koi pond, I will tend to lump them into this section. Construction on the Koi Pond is finished until this fall when the weather is more plant friendly. We plan to rearrange the yard to better accommodate the pond. The plants from the butterfly garden have largely been moved to the pond. The bird feeders will be moved and the butterfly garden eliminated. This is being done to reduce the amount of yard work
The birds are really taking advantage of the pond.

Mammals
The SQRLs are not content to ravage the bird feeders, now they found tidbits in the garden. Those plants are expensive SQRL food.

We drove to Bass Pro Shop’s in Manchester NH to up our bass fishing Game. Then we went out twice to play with our new toys.
My niece, Mae Moeller has come for a visit.

Fun with Benji
Benji injured a toe and ended up with a cone of shame for a while. He also got a summer haircut.
That is just a quick update on how our summer is going. We seem to be keeping busy.
