Still summery

A bumblebee was an early visitor to the morning glories.  Cardinals, chickadees and titmice visited the feeder.  I heard jays and a pileated woodpecker but could not see them. The clouds are streaky to the North, frothy overhead and fluffy to the South, kind of a gradation from cirrus to cumulus. 

A thirsty male finch showed up at lunch.  Later the song sparrow and a mockingbird appeared.  A couple of great blue herons flew up stream and then one-by-one returned.  A buzzard circled. There are honeybees on the rosemary and beetles rafting on leaves in the water.  It is hot in the sun but chilly in the shade. A green pondhawk drank from the pool.
