Summertime's white light...

BOB. From Brothers of the Word - The Power Minute - http://www.powerminute.com/p/pm2021-07-02.mp3 It only takes one minute. I listen every day. =)

Is that a martin house? Do they really help control mosquitos?

@k9photo It is a purple martin house. When a friend of mine bought it and put it up, I told him no purple martin would come. Too many trees around. They like clear fields and pasture land. So there have never been any martins nest in it. I've had raspberry finches and bluebirds nest in it, along with a few chickadees. I want to put up a bat house! They will eat lots of mosquitos. I've seen lots of bats at dusk diving and flitting to capture skeeters around here. =)

Beautifully composed shot. Interesting about the martin house, also something new to me.

@ludwigsdiana Thank you, Diana! This is the wrong environment for purple martins and European starlings are displacing them rapidly.

Beautiful scenery, I looked in the past into a bat house for mosquitoes after hearing it could help. This year the mosquitoes are bad again...

@dutchothotmailcom Thank you, Esther! They can eat a whole lot of mosquitos and help control the bad bugs that eat plants.

Like the light, it's like a gentle silk blanket

@joysabin Thank you! It's really more like a hot wet blanket. LOL!
