Wall to wall sunshine this month. It's getting very dry. High of 25.4, humidex 31 and low of 17.6.
Went for a walk in the sycamore woods in Wallaceburg. This forest is unique, dominated by trees not common in Canada, like American sycamore. A lot of basswood and red oak, along with Chinquapin oak, swamp white oak, bur oak, bitternut hickory, shagbark hickory, blue beech, ironwood, silver maple, cottonwood and probably a few others.
