September's end

A Carolina wren came to the feeder first this morning. The creek looks polished but the reflection has a slight ripple.  There's a light breeze and there are clouds but the sun is bright. 

At lunch the song sparrow emerged.  And the sun went away. I checked the feeder because so few birds were coming, but it is full.  The breeze has picked up and without the sun, it's chilly.

By mid-afternoon the sun was back.  A katydid lurked on a pea leaf that was too dark for camouflage. But, since this species comes in pink and orange as well as green, perhaps it doesn't know any better.
