Great weather continued

I was only outside in the morning but I managed quite a few rescues.  A winged ant staggered around on terra firma.  Alas a damselfly was defunct.   A scarab beetle had rescued itself, more or less.  It climbed a rescue stick but didn't fly away and eventually fell off.  So I hauled it out and put it on the concrete to dry.  

A dragonfly watched.  It may have been a spangled skimmer.  Also defunct was a stink bug.  The silvery spider was still lurking on the pool ladder.  Leatherwings gathered on the parsley.  

At lunch, a bluebird waited impatiently for a Carolina wren to finish eating barkbutter.  This time I fastened it with many rubber bands.  The silly young titmice also got some.
