Skywatch Friday

Our North Texas sky was gray this morning as a much needed rain storm had passed by during the night. Since we are almost always in a burn ban situation in North Texas, the rain was a welcome relief, and once the storm had abated, the sky became a bright, clear blue with white, puffy clouds floating over our post oak-filled yard. Mississippi Kites whistle overhead, buoyant and graceful, as they pursue flying insects (see the little black dot in front of the cloud). At 3 pm the temperature is a lovely 83˚F, a great relief from the 100˚F+ weather of the week before.
