The last week of August has been the hottest of the summer; cloudy sunrises were overwhelmed by sun and heat. Mama squirrel is swollen and hungry --- it looks like another batch of squirrelettes arriving soon. This beautiful hawk (a 2012 Falcon??) whacked the deck glass and looked done for. But when the Hawk Whisperer approached, it flew away like it had been taking a nap.
All the vehicles are getting undersprayed before the rain and salt coat the roads like toxic frosting on an asphalt cake. But the tops were down this week, including on a fun-run to Tobermory. Bruno the '08 took the back roads through pretty summer spots like Lion's Head and Hope Bay. The excuse for the trip was that Pat had won ice-cream; she chose a double-dip of Moose Tracks and Very Cherry.
So many events are winding up the summer such as fall fairs, air shows,tractor pulls, kid's camps, and the Salmon Derby. Fishers that have been out on the bay since before sunrise bring in their catch, hoping it's bigger than they think. Lamprey eels are still in the Great Lakes but the eradication efforts are working. (Grossest things I've seen since my nephew Ryan's Mexican walking fish!!)As of yesterday, here are the biggest trout and salmon. Fries with that, or mashed?
