Hazy sunshine

A male hummer showed up at the feeder but then zoomed away.  I don't know if it was avoiding the female or something else, or if the juice had gone off.  Later i saw a female hummer slurping up the sugar water so the male must have been scared off.  A blue jay breakfasted on bark butter balls.

Wasps were everywhere and I saw some butterflies.  A spider worked on a web in a window.

A wren was up to something under the table - it flew off almost as soon as I noticed it,  On the lake, the prehistoric-appearing heron shared the log with wood ducks and turtles. Only mallards visited us. 

When I returned home after 9pm, there were distant lightning flashes, but only a few wispy cumulus flowing through the stars.  Soon a sheet of white rolled down from the Northwest and a gusty wind hit the house.
