Cloudy, warm and breezy. A fine mist is falling. Chickadees are busy on the feeder. The hibiscus bud opened. I took in the hummingbird feeder. The tide was very high this morning because the moon was full last night. By mid morning the mist was drizzle and by lunch it stopped.

An interesting thing has happened to the portulaca I bought back in June. The flowers were very red then but now they are half yellow as though it is slowly reverting to wild purslane. But another plant that seeded from it (as best I can guess) is still making red flowers.

A barn spider has moved in under one of the lights at the front of the library - unnoticeable by day but spotlighted after dark. The cloud cover is reflecting Norfolk's lights and giving the Western sky an ugly glow.
