More sun

A female mallard was using the wet center of the pool cover as her birdbath.  A white throated sparrow kicked the bark nugget mulch.  The wind is soft ant the creek smooth.  The sky is white with a cirrus glaze but the sun shines strongly.  No birds visited the feeder - I'd better check it. I refilled the feeder.  A drake joined Mrs. Mallard and they are dozing on the pool edge.

At lunch, two tiger and one black swallowtail appeared.  The black laid eggs while the tigers flitted just fast enough to beat my camera.   The dogwood petals continue to flutter down like butterfly wings. A rabbit hopped through a neighbor's yard reminding me that I have nt seen any sign of rabbits in our yard this Spring.
