Butterbutt

The sky was the clear blue that suggests low humidity.  Certainly, the sun was very hot though the air was not.  After lunch, I found a little snail lying in the sun and moved it into some vegetation.  The Berkeley's polypore was getting orange.  The bright red juvenile cardinal was camouflaged among the dogwood leaves.  He appeared to like dogwood berries.  They were disappearing fast.  I thought I glimpsed the grosbeak again but this time it was a yellow rumped warbler - first of the season.  Lots of spider threads caught the sun.  This late in the year must mean that they will winter over as hatchlings instead of eggs.
