Blue so far

Rain is supposed to move in later. I brought the sugar-water feeder in to clean and refill and a hummer showed up and buzzed all around looking for it. Now that it is back in place I don't see any hummers. It feels hot already.

The clouds have rolled in from the West. The hummers have found the feeder. Three of them got into a chase. Also, they've taken to noticing their reflection in the patio door. A black swallowtail was laying eggs on the rue. A female amberwing was lurking in the rosemary.

Holiday boaters flushed a heron and were escorted by crows. I wonder if they noticed?

And the rains came.
