Then, the male kingfisher perched on a piling downstream. The wind played havoc with his ragged crest. The tide was surprisingly high. So the day was far from wasted.
Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Farewell to the pool
The day never got as warm as predicted, or it would have been even harder to see the swimming season end. I figured the pool closing crew would scare off all the wildlife so I didn't really bother to watch for birds. I did discover two sizable monarch caterpillars demolishing the butterfly milkweed. I found the black swallowtail caterpillar as well, but it had a lot more growing to do.
