Considerably warmer

But still windy. I was gone all morning. I found the little yellow plastic flowers off the hummingbird feeder. Sigh. The surveyors for the creek dredging have been around again. I don't understand why they are poking at our bank.

Lots of bugs but few good photos. Queen yellow jackets are house hunting. Dragonflies are patrolling. While the rosemary is nearly done with blooming, smallish black bees are still busy on it. Small brown butterflies, maybe skippers, are pollinating the money plant. Something dark with a gold edge went by fast. The swallowtail caterpillar on the rue molted out of the black & white stage into the striped stage, but I still couldn't get a focused photo. Then an hour later, the caterpillar had disappeared.
