Probably, I should have brought the flowerpot in. But it's clear the portulaca seeds survive the winter so maybe I won't. Little was stirring at breakfast.
The afternoon was warmer so I walked around. I found some puffballs in addition to the mushrooms I mentioned a few days ago. There are a lot of black black swallowtail caterpillars on the parsley seedlings and one green caterpillar on the rue. The dark ones seemed big for their color. Gnats danced above my head and unidentified little bugs flitted around.
Out on the creek a pair of mallards stalked a lone goose that finally chased them off. A squirrel buried a nut while keeping an eye on me. And I saw my first yellow rumped warbler of the fall migration.
