The sky was clear and there was a nice breeze with not too much humidity. I think there were a dozen flowers on the hibiscus. The beautyberry was blooming too, not that you could tell. A fledgling finch sat of the roof begging to be fed. It was itchy with new feathers.
I glimpsed an orange butterfly but it showed no interest in the milkweed. A dark butterfly ignored the rue. But the skippers were happy with the mountain mint. A spider scampered across the patio to tell me I was in the way. I thought it was a woodlouse hunter but it was too pale. The orchard orb weaver was still in the same web.
I found a brown click beetle in the house and took it back outside. It clicked for me several times. As I sat outdoors in the twilight, a male hummer made several visits to the feeder.
