While I was sewing...

In the kitchen......

I got distracted..
It is easy to do when your window has this view....


It was the hottest day of June.


By the early afternoon, our birdbath was almost empty..This little family arrived and I watched...

There was a brief commotion.
 


And then there was quiet...

After a short break of peeking out the window, I filled up the birdbath and went back to sewing.
