4th rain

we had some decent light to mild rain

the worm bin was dry again and let it rain on it and still gave it more water

seems without the cover it keeps drying out quicker than it should
its been only 4 days but having a rain shower seems the best to get it decently wet

and the black chinned turned out to be an anna all this time with the feathers showing different in the shadows
