Soggy gray clouds overhead and high humidity apparently discouraged the wildlife. At least, it discouraged me. And no rain fell. We seem to be in the midst of a drought after years of excessive rain. A big mulch roach got stuck to one of the pill bottles from which I'd carefully peeled the label. I was intending to use adhesive remover on the bottles and use them for seed storage. K released it back into the wild, minus a few legs.
A downy woodpecker came for suet. I glimpsed a gray and yellow bird and also a blue jay in the trees. Cardinals and chickadees made regular visits to the sunflower seeds. I thought I saw a young cardinal whose beak hadn't turned orange yet.
