Nasturtiums etc in full bloom - Mr. Heard had even trimmed
out the dead wood from the trees.
Aug. 1. Birds have been fed bird seed all the time I was away
so they still come to feed. Among them are two banded
birds, one a Spurred Towhee, the other a Song Sparrow.
Two pairs of Druail trail a brood of young down to the
