Beautiful day

There were clouds but mostly the sky was crystal blue.  A dove basked on the patio.  A tiger swallowtail and a black swallowtail were both too fast for me.  The male pileated had a hard time believing I'd let the suet cage go empty.  So I hustled and refilled it.  

Brown headed nuthatches have become regulars.  They seem quite fearless.  I had more trouble with the bluebirds.  A skink was more wary but it wanted to soak up some sun.  

During a break in my meeting I noticed a cormorant its wings on a log that was too steep for turtles to climb.  I counted five turtles.  Two more cormorants kept company with a great blue heron.
