All I saw at breakfast was the cat. The temperature climbed to 84 but it was very breezy. I saw several skinks at lunch time, but the heat energized them and they were moving fast. The same with insects. I saw a butterfly but couldn't even tell what kind. The bees, wasps, and hoverflies attracted to the rue were a little more leisurely, so I could tell there were honeybees among them.

I restocked the bark butter balls and that brought out the bluebirds. Around 9pm, I heard bangs against the window and discovered it was a big grasshopper or katydid, an Orthoptera at any rate.
