After lunch I enjoyed the gloriously blue sky. So did the turtles - I counted nine for sure. Yellow jackets and other wasps bustled around. I saw downy and red bellied woodpeckers but only the downy came to the feeder.
I also saw numerous leafbirds, leaves imitating birds to waste my pixels. Chickadees and titmice monopolized the seeds. Bluebirds engaged in aerial acrobatics but finally one perched.
Then I saw a bird silhouetted in the mountain mint. It revealed itself to be a pine warbler. They aren't migrants but they disappear for long periods. Soon a male popped up on the feeder hanger. Then a female appeared.
