K saw a swarm of some kind of flying insect in front of the garage. I missed that, but as I was cleaning out flower pots for transplanting, I apparently disturbed a tiny praying mantis. It wasn't newly hatched because it was about a centimeter long. It climbed the porch pillar and disappeared.
Some fungus popped up in mulch in the front yard. One looked like an orange bracket and the other a brown toadstool. Petals from the witch hazel were everywhere like confetti, including in my hair I discovered later. I found a snail in one of the flowerpots. A beetle and many earwigs hid under the pots. A sapsucker attacked the pecan tree.
In he back yard, bees enjoyed the money plant. The female red bellied woodpecker helped herself to suet. A bluebird used a dragonfly perch.
I saw a female bufflehead on the creek. Late in the day, a pine warbler got some suet.
