The pool is covered - no more beetles rafting on leaves or spiders walking on water. Birds have not been much in evidence, possibly because of the pool guy. I did see the squirrel with the white spot. She's getting a bit long in the tooth and has a sore on her left shoulder. It has been very dry but supposedly rain is coming in a few days.It's quite warm, but there's a breeze. Afternoon cumulus built up, then blew off East. Something pale green flew by and resolved into a katydid when it landed. Cicadas are still buzzing. Jays are calling too. Mallards paddled past and crows and cormorants flew busily hither and yon. The pink camellia is bursting into bloom.
When it's this warm, it's hard to remember that the equinox is well past, so I get surprised by how early sunset comes. And we are just past the dark of the moon too.
