Mid-afternoon we got real (aka heavy) rain - along with pea-sized hail for possibly ten minutes - all accompanied by the requisite thunder and lightning.  It definitely soaked everything, and created serious puddling.  The hummingbirds seemingly disappeared, and wherever they retreated to during the worst of the storm we hoped they all managed to stay safe from that life-threatening hail! 


Once the hail stopped, and the rain let up some, they came right back.



Cate (and Eileen) came down in the late afternoon, and we enjoyed a wonderful concert.  Cate has an incredible blues voice, and plays the guitar quite well.... especially considering she didn't pick it up until she was in her 50s!





A couple of young fawns (maybe only a couple of weeks old, according to Terry) showed up in the early evening, sans the doe.  We hope the kiddos didn't "get into trouble" for having left where Mama stashed them!
