It was shirt sleeve temperature most of the day, but quite humid. White throated sparrows, titmice, and red breasted nuthatches ate seeds but I think the others were catching bugs. A brown thrasher flashed in and out. The kingfisher was back on the dock post. And a bit later, a great blue heron stood on the back of the bench and preened. Occasional breaks in the clouds let a bit of sunlight through but it was a gray day with a strong South wind.
Around 4:30pm, a frightful cloud swept up from the Southwest, lit from below by the setting sun. Rain blasted through after dark, the temperature dropped somewhat, and the sky may have cleared but I didn't go check.
