Spiders

 A dragonfly perched on a twig beside the creek.  Another chose a stick up by my window.  I startled an egret that flew off.  Cormorants rested on the snag on the lake but I didn't see any turtles.  Hummers came regularly for a pick-me-up. A soldier beetle was on the cilantro. 

I was not as successful at spider rescue today. I did save one that was rafting.  But after I got out, a little green spider visited me.  It was probably a magnolia green jumper, not a young green lynx spider.  Certainly it did jump from one toe to another.  And I found a useful resource: Spiders in Virginia. The rue was full of little dome webs.
