Hazy and slightly cooler

The regulars were joined by titmice for sunflower seeds.  A Carolina wren surveyed the place from the top of the post, but did not partake.  The house wrens continued to work on the birdhouse.  I think this is a new pair and the previous family fledged early yesterday.

Geese and a cormorant were out on the creek while herons and gulls flew over.  A blue dasher obelisked on one of the perches in between dashes after snacks.  A cabbage white and a tiger swallowtail fluttered across the yard while another dragonfly zoomed across above the cherry. 

The house wrens were moving in twigs and singing ownership all day.  Meanwhile, I found some wren feathers in the pool - two tail feathers and some down.  Another dramatic cloud filled the West in the evening.
