Not a lot to report

A blue jay got away with barkbutter balls, just like it did yesterday.  I thought I saw a bumblebee fly through the web in the mountain mint.  The spiders were all in their places and well fed.  Just one skink was in need of rescue.  I found a caterpillar and an adult black swallowtail, but no sign of the hornworm or the monarch caterpiller. 

 A pine warbler visited in the afternoon but the clouds had dropped the light level and my photos blurred.  When we came inside, birds flocked to the food.  A hummer wasn't willing to look around for a meal.  A downy and a Carolina wren shared the suet.  After sundown a storm arrived with much donner und blitzen.  I tried and failed to photograph the lightning.
