So far the windows are not spotted and I can take photos without having to avoid drops. There are wind gusts but the paper says the wind is out of the SW and I'm looking out North windows. Anyway, ducks and geese are flying around the creek. It's definitely mating time. Cardinals, finches, chickadees, titmice, juncos, and white throated sparrows ave all been on the feeder as well as under it. The female towhee kicked mulch for a bit. A robin stopped in briefly.
At lunch the rain had stopped and the wind was drying surfaces. Nuthatches, juncos, and sparrows were still feeding. I saw a male merganser down on the creek. By mid afternoon the sun was shining between passing clouds. This is half a day faster than the weather prediction. Ooops - a big dark paw of a cloud swept up from the Southwest and now the rain is back. And, then the sun again. Very variable, this weather! But maybe it will clear at sunset to show the comet? The sky is bright in the low West, but above is a dark cloud. It looks quite strange. And now the rain is hammering overhead. This was the sunset through rain and window screen.
