Signs of nesting

A grackle had a beak full of dead grass, but saw my camera and took off. The blue sky had cirrus brush strokes that gradually moved off into the East. Cardinals and finches on the feeder, robins everywhere. The Carolina jessamine (Gelsemium sempervirens) is blooming and violets are all over the grass.

Two swallowtail butterflies, one black and one tiger, were flying in the afternoon. Arriving home after dark, I saw two rabbits cavorting under the magnolia.
