Both the heat and the Syrian Woody are back...

Well the weather broke... and then got fixed... it has been very hot again. I even saw a few butterflies fluttering about. The Green Woodpecker I mentioned a few days ago has vanished but then an old friend returned, the Syrian Woodpecker. Twice in fact, yesterday when I heard it call in the morning outside in the garden, and then again today, this time to knock a few times on the telegraph pole in the corner at about 5pm.
