Warm sun

It's odd how after a day that practically wears out the camera, the next day I get only a handful of photos.  I did have a lot going on today and will again tomorrow.  A great blue heron was in the same place as yesterday but it didn't look like the same bird.

The sky was blue and lightly hazed.  I was late getting outside.  I saw a sulphur and several swallowtails, and a skimmer of some kind.  The mountain mint was busy with bees and wasps.  I found two skinks in the skimmer but only one survived.  Hummingbirds continued to waste energy guarding the feeder.

The first quarter moon was visible in the afternoon.  A bright planet rose after dark, Jupiter, I think.
