A blue jay was displeased that I ate my breakfast before serving his, or hers. Downy woodpeckers were satisfied with suet. Then the starlings came. When I chased one off, it would perch in a tree and watch me. It became a contest to see who would get bored first. A pair of geese wanted to use the pool puddle but K escorted them back to the creek.
A very ragged looking warbler came for lunch. It was shedding to make way for summer plumage. A cardinal ejected a pair of finches from the seed feeder.
A thin crescent of moon rose in the afternoon sky. The a black swallowtail fought the wind to land on a mint, not the nearby parsley. After it moved I was trying to locate it again, and discovered a skink basking in the sunlight. A big bluebottle fly watched me water the portulaca I planted the other day. The moon appeared in my West window around 10:30pm.
