Buddy was worn out by the end of the day.

The Mystery Bird Identified?
I went out to check on Venus and the moon this morning, but they were blocked by clouds. However, I got a clear view of Jupiter with four of its moons.
No one could I identify this bird I posted on July 5th. The bird is small and around 200 feet from me when I took the photo. Now I think it’s a juvenile Western Bluebird.

Buddy finally got de-coned. I was in the field this morning, so by the time I got to see Buddy, he had worn himself out. He may have to wear the cone again when he gets his eyelid fixed. But that’s a month away.
Half The Dog He Used To Be
Sunset
He thought he was off to school to be tutored
But off to the vet, he went, to get neutered
Now he’s sad, half the dog he used to be
They put on a cone, adding insult to injury
When Buddy recovers from this trauma
They will fix his third eyelid and end that drama
He will be a new dog, like a new day
Oh Buddy you have come a long way
Morning moons
Surprise! Daddy Owl dropped in for a visit.

There Unseen
4:17 am in the falling rain. There’s a planetary alignment behind those clouds.
I looked to the west and saw Wile E. Coyote laughing at me.
4:45 am. I can see the moon, Mars and Jupiter.
The alignment if there were no mountains, trees or clouds.
Esatern sky at 4:51 am, 5:07 am, and 6:30 am.

RAW Power
I’m trying out a new photo editor called RAW Power. So far it’s pretty good.

Guess What’s 4 Dinner
Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Saturn for breakfast.
Jupiter, Venus, and Mars
I wonder what we are having for dinner?
Oh boy! Mama brought us a gopher!
Mama got in the nest and started feeding the owlets bits of gopher.
The biggest owlet climbed out of the nest while Mama still fed gopher bits to the other owlets.
Buddy is Wowled out. But there is still more to go, Buddy!
The next owlet got out of the nest, Mama fed the littlest owlet a few more gopher bits then she got out of the nest.
All three watched the smallest owlet gnaw on the gopher before Mama flew off to look for another gopher.
The two older owlets hung out on the edge for a while before one jumped back into the nest. The third owlet pondered the nest. It was getting dark when the feeding frenzy started, is was dark while the third owlet pondered, so we left it looking at its sibling.

Surfing A Contrail
Venus, Mars, Saturn, and two stars were nicely aligned this morning. On the 25th at 5:30 am, Jupiter, Neptune, Venus, Mars, and Saturn will be lined up similar to this morning. However, It might be too light for me to see Mars and Saturn at 5:30 am on the 25th. I’ll see.
The moon was surfing a contrail this afternoon.
