It was overcast this morning, which they seem to prefer. A gentle rain fell from about 8:30 to 9am. First a pair of goldfinches came to check on the sunflower progress. The female is squinting through the rain. Then a catbird landed on the steps, saw me, and disappeared. A brown headed nuthatch joined the chickadees. Meanwhile, the cardinals and finches made continual visits to the feeder. In the trees I saw a great crested flycatcher, then some other birds (maybe flycatchers) in an aerial duel. Finally a titmouse appeared.
It cleared in the afternoon and I glimpsed dragonflies. But mostly I was away from windows.
