Hot & humid

Tidewater summer has arrived, though there is a pleasant breeze.  During breakfast, a white breasted nuthatch visited the feeder.  The camera was not in reach.  Afterward, I went out to the birdhouse.  I had seen a photo of baby wrens poking out of someone else's birdhouse and I wondered if the babies here would do that.  Instead, I got thoroughly cussed out by an adult wren.  But I did happen to notice a yellow crowned night heron down in the marsh grass.

The gardenias have begun to bloom.  The birdhouse got quiet in the afternoon and I was afraid they'd left, but then food arrived and so did the noise.  One dragonfly perched close to the birdhouse.
