Killer hot day, and muggy seems to be the state of things. Just scared CatFisher away from the pond but am now thinking that maybe it's not such a bad thing. If she can exist independently of human assistance then good for her. It's not like any of us would make such great friends.
When I stopped to take the first picture I noticed that instantly a large ball of fish was swirling just beneath the surface. Coincidence? Maybe, but I walked a ways along the berm and stopped again, and there were some more. Either they are following me for sinister purposes, or they are like Kilo, and Cashlin, and the bees for sure (they can drain the hummingbird feeder in two days) and know where food comes from - big human appears and food happens.
