The tides were still much higher than normal for a third quarter moon. And a stiff wind roared out of the North so even in the sun it was chilly. People were fishing in the dam outfall that was covered with water and egrets yesterday.
A titmouse and a couple of Carolina wrens joined the regular feeder birds. A male house finch tried to intimidate a wren but the wren wasn't having that. The finch had conjunctivitis so I'll have to disinfect the feeder. Three or four doves hung around on the ground. I heard outraged squawks from the oak but never saw who made them.
A big orb web hung from the dogwood where I had the birdhouse. At lunch time I saw a big green insect fly across the yard. It looked like some kind of grasshopper or katydid. As we drove around on errands I saw several mushroom fairy rings. There were dramatic clouds at times, but the sun set in a clear Western sky.
