Traveling was a lot harder than it used to be. Chicago was surprisingly chilly for summer. But I got home about 4:30 and saw the regulars, a downy, and a titmouse at the seed feeder. The short tailed squirrel foraged below and a skink waved its long blue tail before disappearing into the rosemary.
A female hummer got some juice and a blue jay snatched a mouthful of mealworms, Other birds flitted around. Herons and egrets fished below the dam. At one point, a great blue heron and a yellow crowned night heron were side by side. Cumulus clouds blocked the sun frequently but did not make weather. After dark, a crescent moon descended in the West, trailed by a bright planet.
