We had windows open for breakfast - delightful. Lots of hummers competed for the feeder. Lots of butterflies were too fast for my camera. Goldfinches put in a brief appearance, as did a dove. A squalling youngster kept the house finches busy. Big bees fed on the second crop of sunflowers. I hope I got all the infested flowers in time.
Lots of skinks of all sizes were out, including one I rescued from the water. Slaty skimmers used the perches. A squirrel used the pool ladder. I saw a June beetle fly to the sunflower where it was surrounded by ants. It landed near their aphid farm. A birdwing grasshopper landed on the patio. An egret stalked the bulkhead across the creek. The hummer chases continued and one hummer took on a female goldfinch!
