A crow came looking for a handout but nothing was ready. It had a feather sticking up. Then the female pileated arrived and tore up the suet. A blue jay was only interested in barkbutter balls. A brown thrasher felt the same. A Carolina wren was less choosy. In the afternoon, I spilled the bag of barkbutter balls and a white throat took advantage. It was late in the day when I finally saw bluebirds.
A yellow jacket queen prospected around the birdbath. A skink tiptoed across the lower patio but I didn't get a picture. I also missed a tiger swallowtail, a silver spotted skipper, a red bellied woodpecker, and a mockingbird.
