Warmer, still sunny

Pelicans and gulls are fishing our section of creek.  These are the great black back gulls that only show up in the winter.  Geese and ducks are also out there.  Sparrows and squirrels are busy on the ground.  Titmice, nuthatches, finches, and wrens have been to the feeder.  Juncos showed up mid-morning.  By then the streaky clouds at dawn were gone. 

It is very windy and that's keeping most birds away.  Only chickadees are venturing out to the feeder.  A flock of diving birds came driving a school of fish upstream and after a bit back down.  I saw red-breasted mergansers and cormorants for sure. The camera kept focusing on nearer vegetation so they are too blurry to post, but enough for identification.
