Today we witnessed a really fantastic event. It was amazing how dark it got when the moon totally eclipsed the sun at 2:38 p.m. in our area. The wildlife was very silent. Shortly before the total eclipse, we saw no squirrels or birds as we normally do.
During the eclipse, the automatic lights on the deck came on and the crickets started chirping. I am so thankful that I got to witness this in my lifetime!
