I'm gathering two of each species...

It has been raining here at the Manor for most of the day.  The backyard has a medium-sized creek running through it, and the front resembles the Lake District.  About every five minutes I'm getting emailed warnings from the National Weather Bureau warning of flash floods, backed up drains and sewers, and other biblical plagues.  I assume the cholera epidemic is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.  Just another day in DC.    Meanwhile, some tunes:
