Cloudy

 From the kitchen (without a camera) I saw a wren running and hopping on the top of the pool steps.  The water was too deep and it could not find a way to nab whatever it was after.  The bird gave up before I got to the camera.  I did see a camel cricket clinging to the side of the step.  And later I found a dead frog on the steps. 

A tiger swallowtail found the lantana in the front yard.   I saw a bluebird carrying out fecal sacks so the nestlings must be getting big. 

Blue jays snatched bark butter balls whenever they thought we weren't watching.  The goldfinch landed as we ate lunch outside, but then it panicked. 

Rain finally fell around 5:30pm.  It came down hard enough to drive a hummer from the feeder.
