We have an overcast, windy day here today, 22 June 2017. The temperature is only 9C (windchill 5C). Yesterday, I had wondered whether to finally go for a drive and take a few garden flower photos today, but I've changed my mind. Usually, I never go out on local evening bird walks, as I am always too tired to walk for 2 1/2 - 3 hours (with lots of stopping and observing) by that time of the day. However, on 20 June 2017, my place was so uncomfortably hot that I just had to get out for a while. The walk was at Lafarge Meadows in Fish Creek Park. Some good birds were seen, though all of them, except for this male Yellow-headed Blackbird, were far, far away and no good for photos. This bird had what looked like a delicate damselfly in its beak. Just as we arrived back at the parking lot, a storm blew in - really, a dust storm! An interesting experience. So many days recently have been windy, which of course plays havoc with taking photos of birds and plants. I saw last night that a huge amount of damage had been caused north of Calgary by this storm.
