The sun shone in a clear sky but a chilly wind carried its warmth away. A Carolina wren found the hot pepper bark butter balls and seemed delighted. A pine warbler glowed like living sunlight. The female red bellied woodpecker came back and there was no sign of the pileated that scared her off yesterday. White throats and doves foraged but I saw no juncos. Titmice, cardinals and chickadees stayed with sunflower seeds. A butterbutt got up late. So did a downy woodpecker.
I was away for a good part of the day doing civic things. At twilight, I looked out and caught the sharp crescent moon descending. An unexpected visitor indoors was a leaf-footed bug.
