Changing weather

The hot, sunny morning clouded over by the time we got home in the afternoon and by 4pm light showers passed through.  So did quite a few birds.  Several pine warblers squabbled over the bark butter balls.  I also saw a male downy woodpecker who sneaked up on the suet like a ninja. 

I rescued a bird grasshopper, a couple of small wasps with red bodies, some ground beetles and one spider. 

Three or four bluebirds surprised me, but were equally surprised and fled.  A blue jay tried to be invisible.  Titmice were intimidated by their smaller chickadee cousins. The cardinals were all decked out in fresh feathers.  But the low light made the camera struggle.
