I kept seeing what I thought was an eagle at a distance checking out the creek while it was frozen last week. Today there was no doubt. It swooped overhead and perched in a pine across the creek. Something must have been schooling because there were three herons and other assorted fishing birds active.
Everyone was up and out for breakfast around 8am. Chickadees, titmice, house finches, juncos, a jay and even a sapsucker. And squirrels, of course. It's still warm and very drippy. The snow is gone except for a lump here and there.
Noon and rain, and a flock of robins. What are robins doing here in January? The lunch crowd added a male cardinal, a mockingbird and a wren. Rain comes in waves and about 2pm fog.
