Near the Bay in August |
|
The grass looks different in August |

Is this bird heading South? |

Sunsets are earlier now |
The month of August brings us signs of summer slowly coming to an end. I don't like the earlier sunsets but I do like some of the cooler temperatures we have been having here.
The bay looks different this time of year as well the grass. The shadows are longer. The sunrise comes up later and even the birds are not up until then. The chirping has now begun as the sun is rising here in the East.
What signs of summer leaving are you finding in your area?
Our summer in Texas hasn't been so bad. I think we had a couple weeks of 100-degree weather but other than that not as bad.
ReplyDeleteI haven't noticed any changes in the season yet but I can't wait for the signs, I love love the fall season :).
Thanks Corina for coming by. When does Fall hit there in Texas?
DeleteGreat pics Lisa! I've noticed it cooler in the morning and evenings now. This is my kind of weather and I might add, Titan likes it too! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Bren, yes - quite cool I must say! I bet Titan loves it. It was too hot for any dog.
DeleteI've been "feeling it" a lot in the last week ... and I'm sad to see summer go, especially this year since we've had so much rain (western NC) and cooler temperatures. I don't actually feel like we've had a proper summer! Ah well! :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, I find it sad too. I love the longer days and nights. I hope we have some more hot weather next week or so. Thanks for coming by today :)
DeleteWe're also enjoying cooler weather. We're still surprised at the shorter days -- we have to take down the bird feeders earlier and earlier. Your part of the country still looks good in August.
ReplyDeleteHi George, Wow- alreaady? I wonder if it will be an earlier winter this year. I hope not after last year's snowfall :) Enjoy your weekend there.
DeleteGreat shots of your theme, Lisa (I like the one of the bird best). We're starting to see much cooler overnight temps, although we're expecting a heat (?) wave next week - 85 !
ReplyDeleteThanks Rick. 85 sound good - my fav temp to be outdoors (if not not working hard and sweating of course...) Enjoy the weekend.
DeleteHi Lisa,
ReplyDeleteNice shots and I really like the one with bird! Seems like you can append an interesting quote for it too, nah? ;)
You really like Summer, don't you? As you may already know, we don't find many seasonal changes here as you do, but quite a mix of 'em sometimes except for winter. Many foreigners visit here love visiting beach with warmer weather too :)
You have a lovely weekend Lisa :)
Cheers...
Thank you Mayura, I sure try :) I do. I'm feeling sad it's leaving us soon but I do like fall and the colors it will bring. Do you want to experience snow at least once Mayura?
DeleteHi Lisa,
ReplyDeleteSummer is not leaving us just yet. It goes on til late September. What state are you in? Anyway, I cannot wait for Autumn to come coz that's the time of the year when I'm most alive. I know sounds like a vampire...haha. I'm nocturnal. And I love the cool weather instead.
You've taken some beautiful photos. They are just breathtaking. :)

Hi Angela, RI. The smallest state in the union :) I like the colors and the cooler weather I just don't like it dark in the morning and turning dark quicker in the evening too. I like my sunshine :) Thanks for coming by.
