Fly season finery

Andromeda has her burgundy-trimmed fly sheet and grey fly mask. Breezy has a green-trimmed fly sheet and yellow and black fly mask. They can see through the material on the fly masks. It’s rather like looking through a window screen. It helps keep flies and UV rays out.

Breezy sometimes has eye issues in the summer just like people with allergies. Her eyes get puffy and runny. When that happens, she gets allergy meds (Zyrtec) just like people do. This year, she’s had very few issues.
