Chilly and sunny

Last night there was a glorious rose-red sunset but I managed to delete all my photos by mistake. The wind has mostly calmed. At first the creek was glassy, then it ruffled for a while. A pelican and an egret flew past.

The new feeder location is popular and even the birdbath is getting more use. Goldfinches were up in the redwood and then checked out the feeder, but all my photos are overexposed. Both the song sparrow and the white throat explored the mulch, along with several juncos. Cardinals, house finches and chickadees used the feeder. The blue jay just came for a drink.

The whole day was sunny and nippy, especially after the heat wave on Friday. The moon and Jupiter are bright in the West at 9pm.
