Rain, Rain and more Rain...

Actually we only got a grand total of 1/2 an inch today but it was a slow steady rain on and off most of the day...a good soaking rain! Fred and I attempted to work on the project at the property in between the rain showers. Well I should say Fred worked on the project. I vacuumed the pool, swam and took photos...


Here comes the rain this morning...

On our way down the road in the rain...

This afternoon, the turkeys were at the property when we arrived. I tried to get a photo of them but they were just too quick and ran off into the brush...I haven't seen them in a couple of weeks, so I was really glad they're still around.

The vultures were on their roost, trying to dry out their wings.

Bird on a wire...actually a scissor-tail.

I was trying to sneak up on a scissor-tail out in the pasture but I didn't have much luck. I've been seeing a family of scissor-tails at the property this week but I haven't been able to get close enough for a decent shot. I love watching them as they dart and flitter all over, not sure if they are playing or trying to catch bugs.

Here comes some more rain. Fred was getting frustrated as he was trying to get some work done and had to keep stopping because it would start thundering and lightening out.

And this evening as the clouds started breaking up the sun broke through...
