Fickle weather

Titmice and chickadees argued over the sunflowers.  A male goldfinch visited after breakfast.  As usual there was an egret below the dam.  And the geese visited.  Repeatedly.  I rescued a beetle from the water.  A yellow day lily was in flower and the magnolia buds were almost ready.

The sky shifted from rain sprinkles to sun flickers and back, but mostly stayed gray.  In the afternoon, I saw a hummer reflected in the computer monitor but it was gone before I got turned around.  As I was leaving for a meeting, a brown thrasher hunted under the sakaki. 

Titmice were back at suppertime.  There was some color in the clouds at sunset.
