A Carolina wren got away without a picture. Nuthatches were more cooperative. Brown headed came in the morning and white breasted in the afternoon. Blue jays flew across the yard to eat acorns. The North wind shoved clouds across the sky and made the sun come and go. It shone hot but the wind was chilly. Dogwood berries were mostly eaten but next Spring's buds stood up proud. Morning glory seed pods looked ripe. The saltbush began shedding seed fluff.
The last milkweed pod opened and seeds rode the wind over the house. When I looked at photos of the milkweed pod, I saw what might be a caterpillar on a leaf in the background. A red spotted purple evaded me but its iridescence gave it away. It shone as bright as a tropical
blue morpho.
