Cold drizzle

In the morning, the male red bellied woodpecker tried to get nourishment from the suet cage.  White throats ate sunflower seeds.  Later a downy woodpecker also worked on the suet cage.  Meanwhile, a female hummingbird preened up in the dogwood.

After lunch, I planted assorted sunflower seeds and scarlet runner beans.  I also potted the broken piece of red "million bells" from the hanging pot that I had rooted.  The azaleas were past their prime except those in the shade.  Both blue and yellow Dutch irises, or flags, started blooming, as did the dark red root-stock rose.
