Back to Fall

A couple of Carolina wrens came for breakfast.  Morning was overcast but the North wind cleared and chilled the air, ending the heat wave.  It also dumped bales of pine needles and leaves into the pool.

While cleaning up the mess, I discovered a wheelbug on the barrel where I was dumping leaves.  Maybe it was prospecting for dinner, or maybe I picked it up with the leaves.  If the latter, I was lucky I didn't get bit.  It disappeared when my back was turned.

The wind drove the tide high even though we're midway between new and full moon.  The waxing moon was sharp in the twilight.
