Garden railway in the Summer

Post by mymodeltrain » Sun Aug 01, 2021 8:16 pm

My daughter and I just made this movie yesterday evening; it was fun to play with a kiddo in the garden; it was steaming hot, though. The weather was nearly 100F.

Lovely to hear the crickets/grasshoppers- something we only seem to hear in North Yorkshire when it's really hot. We had temperatures in the 90's a couple of weeks ago, and high humidity - but it's never around long enough to get acclimatised too. After a week of rain we are back to temperatures of mid sixties.

Very interesting that the cellphone camera could pick up frequencies outside the range where humans can hear. Usually, I don't hear the sound of crickets/grasshoppers. There are many plants and flowers around the garden, so we saw bees, wasps, many birds, including cardinals, pigeons, blue jays, and turtles.
