"Chuck Norris" the cat tried to catch a squirrel. After that, I saw a brown headed, then a white breasted nuthatch at the seed feeder. A spring azure was flitting around along with the ubiquitous cabbage white, but the spring azure refused to perch anywhere. The sky was intensely blue. A blue jay raided the seed feeder. I wonder if the counterweight has gotten rusty? Buds popped out all over the sakaki.
A polistes wasp went caterpillar hunting in the grass. A hummer visited the new feeder I just put out and rejected it. I will have to start from scratch. The pool needed a good scraping and finally I was able to get in and go to work with the brush. I hauled out a spider and saw another that was a goner. I also saved a few scarab beetles. The sun was really hot and the water was really cold.
The round moon followed me home at twilight but when I took the camera outside all it got was a bright circle. I don't know why this camera has so much trouble with moon shots. The full moon is on the calendar for May 23 but it certainly looked full tonight.
