This time there is overcast above the mist and no golden light. A jay passed through, and finches and a cardinal came for breakfast. Here is the new saucer-style hummingbird feeder.
By 8:30 the overcast was starting to break up. And by noon it was sunny with cumulus blowing off Northeast. The hummingbird feeder works! At least a male ruby throat had a drink. It did not return though. Shortly after that a buzzard circled overhead and attracted the attention of a crow. The two of them danced through the air impressively.
The yellow, deciduous azalea, or pinxter flower, is in bloom. The rue is budding, and the tiny caterpillar is still alive. Both butterflies and dragonflies are flitting around. Chickadees visited the other feeder. Several jays gave a pair of crows a taste of harassment. The jays just gather around the offender and scream - no aerial pursuit.
