I put fresh hummer juice out in the feeder that is least affected by rain. After lunch and before the rain, I startled a beautiful green female (or possibly teneral male)
pondhawk that I only saw as it flew away. Buds on the butterfly milkweed were getting orange. I saw no sign or eggs or caterpillars though. The rain was enough to wet everything, but not much more. Afterward, the hummer returned. While swimming, I noticed a mother spider clutching an egg pearl and trying to stay out of the water on the top step of the ladder. A mosquito pestered me for a while but I think I may have gotten it.
