I’ve just returned from a week in my home country of Plumas County, California. We had a bit of lightning.
It took many people and not a few pieces of firefighting equipment to knock this “small” fire down over the next couple of days. It flared up and spread, the next day, following the initial suppression.
The Daily Bucket is a nature refuge. We amicably discuss animals, weather, climate, soil, plants, waters and note life’s patterns.
We invite you to note what you are seeing around you in your own part of the world, and to share your observations in the comments below.
Each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the phenological patterns that are quietly unwinding around us. To have the Daily Bucket in your Activity Stream, visit Backyard Science’s profile page and click on Follow.

Fortunately, this was about the worst it got. There had been another lightning fire only a few miles away three days earlier that claimed several structures. I count myself lucky that this one didn’t result in a major blazer.
Then the sun came back out and I found something else to photograph.
