When we got home for lunch, a wet brown thrasher was sitting on the feeder. It flew just as it came into focus. And then the rain returned. A snowy egret fished at the dam outfall and a great egret stood on the dock. Camellia buds were getting fat. During a brief time of sun around 2:30pm, a skink left its blue tail outside the leaves it was hiding under.
Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Off and on rain
The pool was full of pine needles after yesterday's storm. The argiope survived the storm but its web was a mess. It was the dark of the moon and the tide rose over the dock at 9:30am. I saw milkweed bugs on the butterfly weed for the first time.
