The house finches were all over the feeder this morning. Meanwhile grackles were in the birdbath and one fooled the counterweight on the feeder. A mockingbird chased a bug around the patio. Doves hung out on the fringes. The hummingbird chased a titmouse away. And an osprey soared above.
Dragonflies were scarce but I saw a red admiral butterfly down by the dock. The sky clouded over mid-day then cleared in the afternoon. A flock of goldfinches worked over the sunflowers and a catbird briefly joined them. Meanwhile the usual suspects kept crowding the feeder and crowding the hummer as well. The rabbit dropped in as well to eat morning glory leaves.
Here's the catbird at the birdbath. The sky clouded back up and cleared again and now pink streaks are reflecting the setting sun. The hummer warz continue - there may be as many as four if I can trust slight variations in throats as captured by the camera.
