We are all products/creatures of our environment. I'm sitting here typing this as we have yet another liquid sunshine day in my neighborhood, otherwise known as FR (Fecking Rain).
Earlier, out my back door, I watched a very rain-soaked squirrel show up on our back steps, looking for the peanuts I throw out to them, the grackles, and who knows what else that shows up to grab them. I will note in full disclosure mode that wet squirrels look an awful lot like their relatives, the rats. And not like Williard or Ben, if you follow my drift.
The adage goes, "The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike."
But what about the speed of rainfall?

As impressed as I was with the squirrel's persistence (greed? hunger?), I was amazed when a female hummingbird showed up at my wife's feeder, especially since I feared a raindrop striking a hummingbird could spell disaster. Glad I asked.
