Bufflehead

First one this season. In the only photo I got, it is behind this screen of branches. What alerted me was the appearance of ripples on the otherwise mirror-smooth creek. The bufflehead spent more time underwater than on the surface.

The chickadees and titmice have discovered that I refilled the feeder. Do you think this one knows who to thank? Cormorants headed out at dawn to wherever they like to fish. The crows passed through one by one instead of in a clump. All day, all over town, I have seen huge numbers of crows. Do they migrate through here?

Sunset was beautiful with gold streaks under pink puffs. Unfortunately I was driving East at the time.
