Pleasant

A tiger swallowtail laid eggs all over the cherry   The tattered hibiscus managed a flower.  So did the canna. A couple of hummers had a glaring contest.  A squirrel nibbled green acorns.

While I was in the pool I observed something very odd.  An earthworm, I believe, came across the concrete toward the water, its front end raised somewhat like a snake.  I splashed it to stop it from coming over the edge because I wasn't sure whether it would float.  In fact, I wasn't entirely sure it wasn't a tiny snake.  The splash scared it and it hustled away. The last I saw of it was as it crossed the stones into the grass. There was no time to get the camera, alas.
