The weatherman promised rain for Wednesday, and I waited all day for it but it didn't come. In the late afternoon I went out to look at the sky and it did seem to promise rain. But no rain was falling yet.
Then I began to hear a bird singing from a tree. It was a cheerful song, but it took a while to find the bird, which was hidden behind some high branches. Here it is, singing for us. Sorry it's hard to see. I seems it picked the best hiding place in the tree.
It took a few more hours for the rain to start falling, but as I'm writing, it is beating a steady rhythm on my roof. I expect to sleep soundly tonight.
