A bit cooler

The day was sunny but not so scorchingly hot.  Both the seed and the mealworm feeders were empty.  We filled them and put out the brand new hummer feeder.  The wrens showed up quickly.  The hummer took longer.  I found plenty more blueberries and ate the first fig. 

Lots of dragonflies covered the airspace, low and high, at lunchtime.  A blue dasher, a widow skimmer, both female, and atop the pine a Carolina saddlebags.  Later, when I got back from my meeting the goldfinch pair were working on the feeder and the remaining sunflowers.  I saw a skipper on the lantana.
