Intermittent sunshine

A couple of mockingbirds checked out the ripening dogwood berries, as did cardinals.  Titmice preferred the sunflower seeds but perched in the dogwood.  A hummer poked in the morning glories and hibiscus before moving to its feeder.  The regulars were also busy with sunflower seeds.

The gray hairstreak was back for more mint.  I did not see the dragonfly nymph.  The water and air were chilly.  A family of blue jays were more audible than visible.  K finally heard a hummingbird "squeak."

Sunset was more orange tonight, still with a lot of clouds.  Hummers kept up their chases into the twilight.
