Summer!

The equinox was a week ago and then we had a tropical storm, but today was straight out of July - hot and humid under a blue sky.  But I missed most of it while getting ready for a meeting, in the meeting, or talking after the meeting.  And it may have been the last such day till next year, as the forecast predicted a week of cool, sunny weather.  I was up before the sun and it was pleasant outside even then.  But sunrise gilded trees and their reflections. Mallards paddled through the reflections. 

Doves came for breakfast.  I also saw blue jays and titmice.  A snowy egret watched the rocks below the dam. At the end of the day, a mockingbird came for beautyberries when it was no longer light enough for the camera.

The moon was just past first quarter, a perfect time to see craters.
