The temperature is supposed to drop steadily all day. The feeder is rocking but a chickadee hopped on during a brief lull. A female cardinal and juncos stuck to the ground. A flock of diving birds went downstream but I couldn't tell if they were cormorants or ducks. Gulls and pelicans are fighting the wind to go upstream. A white throated sparrow had a drink at the birdbath.At long
last, today the red maple tree was planted to replace our lost oak. We had McDonald Garden Center do it which gives us a 2-year warranty. I wonder how long it will be before it begins to replace the shade we lost. At least, it is a native and adds variety for the critters who need native vegetation.
