Passing sprinkles

I found a morning glory blossom and the hibiscus was covered with flowers.  Juvenile bluebirds were still amusing, though they were learning how to behave.  Chickadees were thick and house finches and cardinals came for seeds.  A pine warbler got a little suet.  So did a Carolina wren.  

A goldfinch showed up to watch and get a drink. The brown headed nuthatches continued to come by for the free handouts.  A bald female cardinal took over the seed feeder.

The butterfly milkweed made three seedpods. The spiders all looked well fed.  I found a different caterpillar on the rue.  It might be a first instar giant swallowtail but that didn't look quite right.
