Thought I was gonna have to replace the a/c motor blower, but when I got it out this is what I found in the squirrel cage.

How the hell did it get in there :huh: :question:
Good thing it was that instead of the motor, 'cause the auto parts store sold me the wrong part :cuss2: or I was supposed to slice the wires and I'm not an electrician, but I'm sure I would've done alright :)

Out for a few hours in the bush again with the misses. Beats sitting at home.
Lots of these out now. They catch the morning dew on the ends of what look like venus fly trap hair thingies and get their water that way. I dont know their name but they eventually have small flowers towards their end. Amazing looking little things they are and have always fascinated me.

Edit.
Just found out they are Sundew Plants and its not water drops but a secretion to catch insects on. So they really are more like Venus Flytraps afterall. I was told that it was water drops years ago and always believed it given we only see them where we are in the cooler frosty morning time of year. Given too the ground even in winter can be dry due its hard impenetrable nature it made sense at the time. Not so I find out.
So there you go, live and learn :giggle:

It’s like a teddy bear I think. It has since been destroyed when she realized she had a big bin of toys filled to the brim. She has plenty of toys so a few being destroyed isn’t the end of the world. I will give her a hug for you and here is another pic from today of her doing her trick just for you.lView attachment 164797

Not sure. I'm thinking, some of it might be insulation and a mouse starting a home :eek:

I'm betting your right, I had an old motorcycle that mice had made a nest in the air filter and that's what it looked like.

Little disappointed today... we went to La Jolla again... hoping to be able to take some killer shots of the Salk Institute


Wanted to capture some of the photos they show via google...got one before security came around... Institute is shut down

There was no one here but us... and security.

Normally it’s open, pandemic times and the institute said get bent public dregs.

Beuatiful. You are in South Africa if I remember right!?
We have a native flower here that has the same colour and serations on the petal ends.
Should be making a show in our bush in a couple of months. This is one from last year.
Just has less petals than yours.
How bizarre and awesome is that!? :)

Last night and last time to let doggies out, this is what was greeting me at the screen door

Beautiful Web ! It's normally off to the right side of the screen door. The web stretched enough to let doggies out. I felt bad, so I kept the porch light on hoping he got his meal for the night.

Just take it down early morning. She'll have a little rebuilding party. As long as she gets enough time before nightfall

All summer I've been waiting to be able to take a good/decent pic of her and I'm glad it finally happened. The web is always gone by the morning time, and I don't know why it's gone, but it's almost always there at night. Must just be the type of spider that spins it's web at night :huh:

I was out on the porch sitting and watching two hummingbirds having a dispute over which one owns the feeder. One got the other and a single feather floated down and landed on the chair next to me. First time I've ever seen a close up of a feather from a hummer.
I don't have a good camera, so this is the best I could do

It is so tiny !

Our UV index is around 9.2 average this time of year, with a few hours of the day near 11.

If our UV index was only 4, that would be rad!

Was fairly cloudy today and storms out now. They keep taking about the hurricane coming but it won't make it this far inland. Hell I'm closer to the mountains than the beach. But damn 9.2 is high. I'm not sure what our average is but I'll keep an eye on that now.

My A/C went on the blink Friday morning. It was a cool 90° inside all day and yesterday it was between 80 and 90.
Finally found someone to come yesterday at around 3.
A 20.00 part and 379.00 later and I have air again!
Thank God!
