It rained overnight and I was up before dawn. I thought sunrise would be pretty as there were clouds hanging in the East, but I missed any color. However, on my way up Church Street I saw a raccoon that had been hit by a vehicle. On my way back, a mockingbird perched on a utility pole and sang.
At home, everything outside was wet. Titmice were crowding the feeder along with the regulars. A Carolina wren explored the sunny patio. The morning glory vine is gone which may distress some birds.
In the afternoon there were more spiders in the skimmer. A wasp found its way into the house but the butterfly net caught it. A honeybee worked on the rosemary alongside carpenter bees. I think I glimpsed a hawk leaving - I should have looked around before standing up.
