Hot and hazy

Squirrels, chickadees, and Carolina wrens are at the feeder, finches and cardinals are more wary with me outside.  Something crashed through the gladiola overnight, possibly in revenge for the board K nailed to keep the mulch in place. The wren on the back of the feeder soon joined the one in front. 

An osprey and some swallows circled overhead.  Later a male towhee visited.  White spot licked up all the sugar water from the hummer feeder.
