The look Willow gives trying to convince me to give her a bite of my breakfast.
It works every time.
Thundershowers on and off this past week. It is something we haven’t seen for the last few years. Thunder, yes, showers, no. Lightening without showers is hazardly in a bone dry forest, as the last two years have proven. With luck we won’t have smoke filled skies this year.
The garden is benefitting from the moisture and lightning that releases nitrogen. I have long noticed a growth spurt after thundershowers.
The garden is beginning to produce, we have wonderful salads each night, consisting of a mix of about ten different greens.
A small Song Sparrow weathers the storm.
Lisa, Willow and I were back in the bush today cutting firewood. We got most of it done between storms.
Very fine day.

There is a word in English for that look, it’s Groaking from to Groak, “to look on silently—like a dog—at people while they are eating, hoping to be asked to eat a bit.”

I don’t think we ever have thunder and lightning without heavy rain here. Mind you, we’re famous for rain!

So far our lightning has been with rain. I hope it stays that way.

Love that shot of Willow! Yep I would share my brekky too … Didn’t know that about lightning and nitrogen. Now do you have any special salad dressing recipes Bob? 🙂

Hi Julie, all the dressings I know only have oil, lemon juice and basil or garlic. Willow knows how to get a bite.
