My answer to the 'Positive Homework Assignment' today is observing a solid gray cloudy sky this morning! Believe it or not, this is an unusual sight here in Tucson, AZ USA where the skies almost always have a blue portion, or are almost completely solid blue!
I strolled around our yard a few minutes ago and here are the highlights 😍: 71 Mexican Poppy flowers(!); a Costa's Hummingbird feeding on our one-and-only Lupine in bloom; one 1/8" Queen Butterfly larva; small 1/2" red fruits on a Pencil Cholla; lizards zipping along the ground; two Cactus Wrens foraging on the ground under an Ironwood tree; a Phainopepla resting on an old Agave flower stalk; and a new Agave flower stalk growing, about 5.5' tall so far.

Yes! Gray skies are very unusual here in Tucson. Let's hope our gray clouds are accompanied by some rain!!! 🌧
