The sun burned in a clear ultra-blue sky, but a breeze from the North kept the temperature pleasant. The squirrel Einstein was back. A tiger swallowtail stayed a flit ahead of the camera. A cabbage white was more willing to pose. A hummer visited the milkweed. Its feeder was dry so I put out fresh but I don't know if it noticed. Chickadees and titmice were very busy at the seed feeder. A titmouse that was molting looked very untidy.
I had a mixed-up schedule that put me in the water with little shade. A few beetles needed rescue. A dragonfly zigzagged inches above the water. Meanwhile, the bees and wasps made drama on the mountain mint. Thread-waisted wasps were mating. The common whitetail zoomed across the patio and out of sight. All was well with the orchard spider but I couldn't see the Argiope.
