Still gray

House finches came for breakfast, followed by the courting cardinals.  Will they ever settle down and raise a family?  That's what the house wren was busy doing.  Geese with six goslings invaded around lunch time and, after I escorted them off, I found a dragonfly on the patio.  I thought it was dead, but when I picked it up, it clung to my fingers.  It began shivering its wings so I tucked it into a sheltered spot on the house wall. I think it was a darner though it was awfully dark. 

The morning was misty but there were some flickers of sun at lunch.  A cabbage white ventured out.  Two titmice tried to get to the sunflower seeds despite a greedy house finch that was blind in one eye.
