A female bluebird wanted seeds but the male cardinal was being a bully. Maybe it was because he was molting and feeling ugly. I counted four mid-size caterpillars on the butterfly milkweed. The two largest that I saw before had disappeared. One persisted on eating a seedpod which attracted very tiny ants.
Some bees and wasps came for mountain mint nectar. I rescued yet another green tiger beetle from the water. It refused to pose. Hummers were more cooperative. One tried the butterfly milkweed. After I got out and sat down to drip dry, a rain shower came out of nowhere so I dripped my way inside.
