Lovely day

I sat outside for a short while when I first go up, but the breeze was chilly.  Titmice and a goldfinch came to the feeder.

The pool had gotten rather green but it brushed up easily.  Lots of spiders and beetles had fallen in, along with chunks of bark mulch.  I saw dragonflies perched all around.  Snout butterflies guarded their favorite perches. I heard a little green heron squawk as I moved the screen off the pool steps.  But I only saw egrets.

Titmice, cardinals, chickadees, and house finches worked on seeds, mostly in peace, but a couple of hummers argued over their feeder.  I glimpsed a brown thrasher taking a dust bath.  Wrens were around but I couldn't be sure which kind. A mockingbird flew out of the pecan.
