The blue, cloud-mottled sky, the sun of 0500 has been replaced with gray. Rain to begin in 47 minutes. A Least Flycatcher was the first to be heard, quite often it is the Ovenbird. Joining the chorus: Eastern Phoebe, Canada Warbler, Cedar Waxwing, Northern Parula, White-throated Sparrow, Common Yellowthroat, Red-eyed Vireo, Ovenbird, Black-and-White Warbler, Northern Waterthrush, Magnolia Warbler, American Crow.
Two blueberry bushes he planted Thursday will require no watering. More oak leaves will land on the deck. The gray and white striped beach towel hangs by the door waiting to dry the three as they come and go later.
Some days look like they were plucked from a different season.
