The Great Backyard Bird Count http://www.birdsource.org/ begins today.
9-9:30am: sunny with some clouds, 60ish, breezy to gusty, tide falling from full moon high. Male and female house finch (1 each) on feeder, 3 crows, 2 Carolina chickadees. 1 cormorant, 3 buffleheads, male and female mallard (1 each) on dock, 3 ring-billed gulls. Phooey! Was it the wind?
Later when I wasn't counting, the juncos came out and hit the feeder. Later still around sunset, I saw geese, a buzzard, a flock of blackbirds (too high to identify except one was making that rusty hinge noise), an egret, and lots more gulls and crows.
The results.
