Another rare June day

A hummer visited the new, little feeder.  Leatherwing beetles feasted on parsley flowers.  A few blueberries turned red.  Saddlebags dragonflies cruised under fat cumulus clouds.  A silvery spider blended in with the pool ladder railing, at least from the water.  It was more visible from outside.  Mud dauber wasps worked on fresh nests.  A swallowtail butterfly was attracted to the rue.  A brown headed nuthatch paid a visit to the sunflower seeds.  The titmouse tribe were all over the place, fledglings acting silly.  But something stole the fresh barkbutter tub I put out.  The moon was getting on toward the first quarter. Toward evening, I was watching a downy woodpecker up in the oak when I spotted a great crested flycatcher.
