Egrets in the mist

Several great egrets flew past as we were eating breakfast.  The feeder was busy with Carolina wrens, nuthatches, chickadees, cardinals, titmice, white throated sparrows and juncos.  Song sparrows and the male towhee stuck to the soggy mulch.  The fog is persisting.

After a whole morning of threatening clouds, the sky cleared around 1pm and the sun blazed. More sparrows and wrens appeared.  Bumblebees joined honeybees on the rosemary.  A pelican flew up and down the creek.  The day grew very warm.
