I was up early but the wrens were up earlier. The sky was overcast and there wasn't enough light for good photos. Somewhat later, the creek was busy with something that made very small ripples. I don't know if it was insects or crabs or methane. But it seem to attract the juvenile night heron. An adult night heron landed on a post but flew off immediately. And we too went off for the rest of the morning.
The miniature rose made a flower. An egret poked around the dam outfall. Hummers and blue jays came for lunch. A dark butterfly flitted around the cherry, but evaded me. I thought it might be a dark morph of a tiger swallowtail.
Around 7pm, the light dropped, fierce clouds and wind gusts suggested a storm,but it never broke. Wildlife disappeared while leaves flew up as often as down. But it all calmed and the fireflies came out.
