Two blue jays sheltering underneath our picnic table during Hurricane Harvey. We’ve had 10 inches of rain in the last two days, as Hurricane/Tropical Storm Harvey sits at a standstill over Texas.

Shade
We’ll take any shade we can get in this brutal, central Texas heat and humidity.
Looks like all the beer evaporated already.

Rain Boots
Here are the rain boots worn by me and my fellow students at a wildflower photography workshop. It was a dark and stormy morning — lightning! thunder! wind! rain! — but by the time we wanted to venture outside for our first photography session, we had blue skies. It was still wet, however, so we donned our rain boots for most of the afternoon.
Creature from the Green Lagoon
We still have standing water from a couple of days of rain. This frog decided to take up residence in the puddle close to our dining room window.
Hubby got a good closeup.

It's a long story ...
