The regulars came to breakfast anyway. One chickadee followed another around, to its annoyance. Hummers dodged the raindrops. At one point, one chased another away. And I thought I glimpsed a male, but maybe not.
The sun came out mid morning. After lunch, two families of geese with nearly a dozen goslings camped out in the redwood shade. But then some started to move uphill toward the freshly cleaned pool.
In the late afternoon things got lively around the feeders. A downy woodpecker, a parent and fledgling titmice, and the white breasted nuthatch joined the regulars. The woodpecker seemed to have precedence. Hummers came too and a wren hopped around.
The evening clouds were very dramatic and a little scary. Fireflies took advantage of the twilight before the rain.
