It rained overnight and drying out proceeded slowly. A Carolina wren visited early and a dove later, and, of course, finches and chickadees. The sky cleared by lunch time and the sun was intense. A skinklet scurried around the steps. A male cardinal picked at the beautyberries while a brown thrasher poked through the mulch.
The sun lured me into the 70° water. I found a few beetles and two spiders. Afterward, a black swallowtail flitted around the herbs. Carpenter bees enjoyed the rosemary. I saw a towhee run along the fence.
