South Louisiana night
The heat (for the most part) has left this end of May day. The breeze - if you call it that - is trying desperately to chase the muggies away. Dark clouds are slowly moving in the distance. Could they be from the shower I drove through earlier? Could they bring the rain we need? Whatever it is, we can use it. The locusts are singing their tune in the trees. One flies from the oak to the pecan. It is barely visible from ground level. The mocking birds are still working hard feeding their young in the awesome nest they built in the avocado tree. Other unidentified birds are singing their last songs of the day. The squirrels are getting their last bit of play in as they startle a quiet dove from it's perch. The starling pokes it's head out of the orange bird house they have claimed for the past 3 years. The starling checking out the neighborhood before turning in. Daylight is fading. Darkness fast approaching. Another beautiful South Louisiana "heels of summer" day coming to a close. God I love this place. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
