I don't know what the "official" word is, but if we're not in a drought, we soon will be! Last week on my walk by the lake, I noticed the water level was down slightly. Well, today it was extreme, twice as bad as last week and shocking to see the water level drop so quickly in such a short time. A few of the small streams that feed the lake have completely dried out. We need some rain!
But nature was still out and about in full force. Saw 2 beautiful white water birds (egrets? cranes?) and a few herons. The rose of sharon is also in bloom.
Didn't have my camera with my this trip, unfortunately!
