I glimpsed a tiger swallowtail. The dragonflies mostly disappeared. A squirrel seemed to wonder if another orange would be forthcoming. Finally the pool was opened but the power switch failed so the water started reverting to green. A pair of geese escorted three goslings. Two night herons argued about territory.
Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Blue water
The temperature was quite a bit cooler, though less windy, and the sun shone in a white sky. A pair of Carolina wrens joined us for breakfast. Blue jays showed up even before I put more barkbutter balls in the dish. Birds rock just like kids on the swinging feeder dishes, but I think one blue jay was pumping the swing, not just rocking with it. Another blue jay, up in a tree, appeared to have recently bathed, though I don't know where.
