Curtains of rain are blowing up the creek. Cardinals, finches, and a white throated sparrow nevertheless came for breakfast. I finally got the two color morphs of white throated sparrow in one photo.
The wind defeated the rain. Lots of chickadees are hungry along with wrens. I keep glimpsing mystery birds that I cannot identify. A ragged osprey soared over the creek. A female brown headed cowbird stopped by briefly. I have to thank the Facebook Great Backyard Bird Count group for confirming the identification.
Around 9pm, at least two raccoons came to raid the feeder. I was alerted by the noise when one jumped off. I couldn't get much of a photo through the window without scaring them off. But here is one pawing through the mulch.
