Sunshine!

 The day dawned gloomy and I feared the worst, but the overcast broke up and we have intermittent sun.  Insects are rejoicing - bees, wasps, and butterflies.  A brown headed nuthatch joined chickadees on the feeder till the cardinals moved in.  A song sparrow also sneaked aboard.  A mockingbird checked out the camellia and the beautyberry.  Egrets are busy along the creek.

I took down the birdhouse and it fell apart.  The nest was lined with feathers that never came off a wren. 

The song sparrow was back at lunch along with chickadees and cardinals.
