Fire danger is extreme now, all outdoor burning is banned. There is enough ground moisture that the berries are able to plump up a little as they ripen. Grasses are crunchy dry. Some of the bigleaf maples and black cottonwoods in the forest are losing a few leaves prematurely. Birds and wasps are quick to come to any source of moisture that is out. The creek is low. Ferns and horsetails are starting to dry.
