Rhino16 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I’ve been seeing a lot of those “find the ___” posts, and I’m surprised I haven’t been eaten by a snake or other creature yet. Camouflage is scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not always a sour fan....but MAN, that sounds like a tasty combo!! I am staying fairly "pedestrian" this afternoon...sticking with a couple Port City (Alexandria) beers...since we moved our grilling day up one afternoon, given tomorrow afternoon's potentially more sucky/more severe forecast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 The fireflies are out in force up my way - especially into the overnight. Took the dogs out at 2:30 am last night and just an absolute light show from the lightning bugs up in the tree line and also closer to the ground. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent choices throughout the weekend, @CAPE. After a bit of work over the past hour or two, I'm grabbing my Kindle and an IPA and heading out to the back patio for an hour or two before dinner... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Buda, Texas at 9pm local time, 88 degrees, with a suffocating 80 degree dewpoint. Feels like 102. Spent an hour pulling weeds and super tough grass runners that had to be tackled one by one, dozens of them, in the midst of a choking cloud of gnats and whining mosquitoes. It's fun down here. You guys should try this. It's relaxing and soothing. We had some enjoyable 115 real feel weather earlier. It was even nicer in the direct sun. We are getting off to a really good running start this summer! Oh wait! It's only late May. Summer starts JUNE 21. My bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Took these during, and just after, the severe thunderstorms that went through right around sunset. A couple are black and white. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Absolutely horrific sound woke my wife and I up at 445. Sounded like an animal being tortured to death. I think now it was a female fox in heat? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was walking my neighborhood the other night (very wooded area) and suddenly I hear what sounds like a demon screaming bloody murder about 200 feet into the woods. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And agreed, it is a bloodcurdling, otherworldly sound like no other, especially if you're not anticipating it. Our property backs to the Coast Guard's deeply-wooded Alexandria compound, and there's a handful of female foxes roaming their property at any given time. Some nights it sounds like we live next to a haunted graveyard. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 I investigated a post-midnight "screaming child" a few summers ago only to find a fox sitting calmly in the middle of the street just letting any and everyone know that she was available. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our cat was sick yesterday, so the first sound that woke me up made me think it was her basically dying in the house somewhere. It quickly ramped up to blood-curdling levels and I could see an animal sitting in our driveway although it was too dark to be sure what species. At one point I saw two animals sort of posture at each other (presumably now the male and female). It stopped after about 5 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 I think (she) was looking for a spot to lay eggs, but was getting too much attention from a curious crowd of black vultures (I'm not dead yet!) and there was even a fox looking on!
