The male hummer stuffed himself. So did a Carolina wren, but with different food. I hustled to put out more barkbutter balls. The hibiscus put out a flower. But the second sunflower was not that far along. A female great blue skimmer perched outside my room. Later a blue dasher took up that post.
I picked figs because rain was predicted. Green June beetles shared a fig. The fig collecting made me very glad to get into the water. The pool also attracted three frogs. The bigger one ws a green frog and I think the other two were leopard frogs. I saw a tiger swallowtail, a black swallowtail and a monarch. Blue jays were excited by the fresh bardbutter balls. The two monarch caterpillars were still growing. The peppers were ripening.
We barely made it home ahead of the storm.
