Mountain Bluebird with food for his babies

Little did I know what I was going to miss when I went on a short drive SW of the city yesterday afternoon, 23 July 2018! Only when I checked the weather forecast for today did I see photos and videos of the severe hail storm that hit the city while I was gone! Of course, it may not have covered my part of the city. When I was taking photos yesterday, very black clouds did start rolling in, as seen in photo #5 that I posted this morning. However, I had no idea what was happening back in the city. It was windy, too, and COLD, which actually felt really, really good.

The forecast for today gives an 80% chance of thunder storms for this afternoon. I had planned on finally getting out on another botany walk with friends, but I'm not sure I want to risk getting soaked. The temperature at the moment is just 13C at 10:45 am.
