Wrens

Morning was sunny and windy. The house wren was busy with twigs and the Carolina wrens with mealworms.  One Carolina had a bit of nesting material too.  White throated sparrows were up with the sun.  A female goldfinch stopped by very briefly and a blue jay hid in the shrubbery.  The cardinal males had another staring contest.  Then a male tried to join a female on the feeder perch but their combined weight closed the feeder.  One of the squirrels had a patch of white fur in the middle of its back. 

At lunch, a blue tailed skink roamed the patio.  Cabbage whites flitted around.  A titmouse visited the feeder.  The house wren continued to seize twigs that were way too big for it.  I toured the landscaper's work and saw flies or bees that seemed interested int the mulch instead of the flowers. The sky grew hazy and then white in the afternoon.
