Skies in the back and front yard in late August. We were getting rain almost every afternoon.


The juvenile bluebirds were still hanging around. We had at least 8 from 2 different families coming to the feeder and bath.

A lizard was molting.

Fred, my regular visitor to the back window, was also molting and I ran outside with my phone and was able to get a video of him trying to get his molt off his face. He let me get really close and I was tempted to try and pull it off his face but thought I would spook him so I let him do it himself.

More tiny frogs and a beautiful yellow moth.

When I see pileated woodpeckers fly into our oak trees I run outside with my camera. They are usually too high up for me to get shots through the window. This guy was sticking his tongue into a hole looking for bugs.

This is either a young juvenile blue jay or an adult that is molting.

Doves soaking in the bath.

A tiny rainbow at the end of our street.

More red after a storm.

We had some dead fish floating in the neighborhood ponds from all of the chemicals used on the golf course that run into the ponds after repeated heavy storms. The great blue heron wouldn’t even eat the dead fish.

Hello Dina,
Beautiful sky captures! The lizard trying to clean it’s face it cute. The bluebirds are always a favorite of mine, great series of photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great day and happy weekend.
I love the Bluebirds and the Woodpecker Dina. Great captures. And how I’m looking forward to those warm August evenings again.
