Changeable weather

Fluffy clouds crossed a blue sky.  The creek was flat in the morning.  Wrens scurried around.  An egret occupied the dam outfall.  A duskywing skipper sampled the mint.  The cardinals were beaking again.

 I wasted time trying to photograph the dragonflies zipping around through the air.  A goldfinch pair checked out the feeders, then left. A sulphur butterfly visited the miniature rose.  The day grew very hot. 

Clouds piled up during the afternoon.  The wind grew very gusty.  That didn't stop the hummers.  Several showers passed through.  We didn't put out bark butter balls because of the threat of rain, so there was nothing for the blue jays. The day ended in streaks of pink and fireflies.  Bugs banged on the glass and a slug ascended it.
