Goodness,
while much of the U.S. is overloaded in rain,
while much of the U.S. is overloaded in rain,
we here in the southwest are burning up.
On my radar weather page, I see the storms come up fron Mexico into Texas up north
and then swing east.
and then swing east.
That leaves Arizona dry and gasping for some rain.
This week we might have the start of some monsoon storms.
I am lighting some candles.
Hope.
Here are a few of my summer "hot" sunsets before the monsoons come.

Sunset and the (very tiny) moon

From picasa to my blog I always lose some color.

My camera is so fickle and I keep changing the setting to try to get the best colors.
One photo blue and then more green the next.

Much needed water drops on the grass.

A small rant
Last Friday I was reading one of my most favorite blogs.
On the post she had mentiond her friends having a wildlife camera (I am getting one) that takes photos every 5 minutes. They had noticed a hedgehog that had not moved for over five mintues staying in the same spot. When they looked they found a dead hedgehog with it head bitten off.
The blogger was wondering if a cat could have killed the hedgehog and bitten off its head in 5 minutes. I said yes.
Of course I had to comment by inserting my foot in mouth.
I commented about cats not being left to roam especially un-nutered. and what cats have done to the bird population.
On a farm I understand the need for rodent control but no where else should
a cat be left to roam.
Feral cats are are especially evil. One un nutered male can sire so many litters in a year, that keep having more and more litters.
If I can find the report I read about a study in the UK the bird population
has dropped so fast due to city cats being left to run amok
and the French farmers killing the migrating birds.
They are expecting problems. I will post it.

Before I leave my comment, I usually love to read the comments.
I should not have that day.
One comment has stayed with me for three days now and I am repulse, sickened, horrified and much more.
Seems this commenter " has a sweet cat" who regularly catches rabbits, brings then into the house drags them into the bathroom. Then she jumps into the bath with the rabbit so that the rabbit can not get out, they are alive. And eats their head.
Then goes out to get another rabbit.
Hello. what the hell is the owner doing. Standing around cheering ?
I have seen too much "people" cruelty to animals,
that I don't think we should be adding to it this way.
I hope that commentor does not have children that see this kind of cruelty and think it is OK. cruelty is cruelty.
This poor rabbit was frightened, toyed with, played with, battered about then finally killed while the cat ate it head.
I understand on a farm one need to keep rodent population under control.
But you get a permit to shoot rabbits. Your don't terrorize and then eat its head
End of rant.
yert !
