Little birds

Before there was enough light for photos, the feeder was hoppin'.  Two nuthatches, Carolina wrens, Carolina chickadees, and juncos were joined by the white spot squirrel.  Later the wind rose and the creek is high and empty.  There is blue to the East but the clouds are slowly moving that direction.  Now the feeder and mulch area are empty but white-throated sparrows are prospecting in the leaf and petal litter around the camellia. 

After lunch, geese, mallards, and buffleheads were out on the creek in the sunshine.  White spot was still busy in the mulch, but now a nuthatch was coming to the feeder.  The wind was enough to keep the feeder rocking slightly.
