Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Still summery
A bumblebee was an early visitor to the morning glories. Cardinals, chickadees and titmice visited the feeder. I heard jays and a pileated woodpecker but could not see them. The clouds are streaky to the North, frothy overhead and fluffy to the South, kind of a gradation from cirrus to cumulus.
A thirsty male finch showed up at lunch. Later the song sparrow and a mockingbird appeared. A couple of great blue herons flew up stream and then one-by-one returned. A buzzard circled. There are honeybees on the rosemary and beetles rafting on leaves in the water. It is hot in the sun but chilly in the shade. A green pondhawk drank from the pool.
