In the meantime, although we have had (amazing) 7 mm of rain this week, the deciduous trees and shrubs are suffering, choosing to lose their leaves rather than trying further. Everything is brown.
I have started putting out more food choices in our front view and have the red squirrel and the dark-eyed junco mooching out front. The eastern dark-eyed junco is grey and white while our BC version (Oregon sub species) has some brown as well.
The bird seed I am strewing should attract California Quail as well (judging from their calls they are all around) but there is not evidence, yet................
The next week should be more interesting with house showings, travel to the southern Okanagan, etc.
Temperatures are under the 30's this week and I am freezing...
With the rain, the smoke has cleared, and we have had a chance to see the lenticular clouds generated in mountains today......
