So this last week we had our Sand pipers hatch!! They were soo dang cute. Mom, or Dad, who ever this is.. was about 6" from my feet! But I can understand why!
Three little chicks here.... and then it took us a while to find the 4th.. he decided to venture a little.
4th little one!
Then latter in the week our second nest of Sand pipers hatched, well, 3 of the 4... But super cute!!
So today Daniel came home from work and asked me if I had looked outside lately.... There was an un-natural "cloud" above us coming from the west over by "The Site" or the Nuclear Laboratory. So scanning the web we find that it is supposedly a "brush fire". But we are about 80 miles from "the site"... and the smoke was over us and traveling..... we didn't get any ash, so what ever is burning a lot hotter than a brush fire... .other wise it wouldn't be over us. It is all very uncharacteristic of a brush fire... so we are pretty sure they are coving up some testing gone wrong or something.....
These pics are at about 5:45 or so.. by 8 ish it was so thick it was blotting out the sun pretty well and was fairly dark.... felt like it should have been closer to 10pm! It is fairly windy too, so it is moving fast. So I guess we'll see what happens.
