The creek was quiet but the colors were dull. It took a long time for the patio to dry because of the humidity. Around lunchtime we had some sunny moments. What I think was a young chipping sparrow tried to get lunch but the house finches were too greedy. Then it gave a side-eye to a garden spider. A Carolina wren was more successful with the barkbutter balls. The cardinal was beginning to grow a new tail. A monarch butterfly perched on a dogwood, probably because there was so little left of the milkweed. As I left for a meeting, I spotted two large parasol toadstools at the foot of the drive. I was busy till evening but did see the cloudless Western sky turn beautiful colors after sunset.
