The Creeks in July

As I was out on a walk today I realized that I could still hear the sound of running water. It was quiet, but unmistakable. After further investigation I discovered that both seasonal creeks on our property are still running and it's mid-July. That is pretty amazing. In a normal year, we would be fortunate to just have some standing water left. But with our record rains in May & June we are reaping the benefit of actual running water on July 16th. Since the fields have turned brown now it is nice to know that the wild animals still have a good source for drinking water.
