The rain blew out to sea but the wind is still blowing. The sun is bright and the air is cold. Little birds were hungry. First came chickadees, then titmice, nuthatches, and finally a wren. On the ground, a song sparrow sorted mulch. Later a cardinal appeared. I also saw a little bird going up the trunk of the remaining oak tree, but that's too far of to be sure it's a nuthatch. Geese paddled upstream.
It's gull weather - they're out playing on the wind. A pelican flew upstream and a bufflehead paddled down. While we ate lunch, several pelicans cruised by. The wind is very gusty. Crows rousted a hawk from the pines across the creek. More pelican fly-bys and I think I glimpsed a kingfisher.
