The bald male cardinal appeared to be hunting for caterpillars on the butterfly weed. I hope that they were not all eaten, but I didn't see any. The usual wasps fed on the mountain mint. Hummer wars were frequent. I surprised an night heron and a crow (I think) at the water's edge. Then I went off to staff a voter registration drive in a hot downtown park with teens performing, loudly.
After I got home, I went out to check on my favorite spider. At first all I could see was a moth in the web. Then the Argiope came climbing up to wrap its prize. I could see a planet, presumably Jupiter, in the Southern sky but the moon was waning and in hiding till morning. I finally found a
website for planets with daily updates like the one for the
moon.
