Early overcast, late thunderstorm

The sky was overcast, but it is breaking up.  We forgot to unblock the feeder and frustrated finches sat on the perch complaining.  Later, after the Sunflower Cafe was open for business, the female goldfinch returned. No one bothered her, so I guess her reputation has spread.

A fox appeared about 5pm and chased a squirrel briefly, then gave it up and dashed off.  A few minutes later, the predicted thunderstorm arrived with more rain than poor Arthur, also considerable wind gusts, lightning and thunder.  Trash cans went sailing in the flood. The temperature dropped over 20 degrees from the 90s down to 72°. 

Light rain and hungry birds in the evening.
