The usual suspects

Chickadees, cardinals, and house finches are at the feeder.  Squirrels and doves on the ground.  Crows and blue jays in the oak trees.  Gulls and cormorants over the creek.  Bumblebees on the rosemary.  It is a little warmer today and very bright.  Acorns keep plopping into the pool. 

A brown thrasher worked under the oak and beautyberry.  It was too far and too shadowy for a decent photo. A mockingbird hid out in the hickory.  A hummer hit the feeder.  A Carolina wren showed up late afternoon. 

K asked why the critters in the oak keep snipping off branch ends and dropping them on the ground.  I wonder too. 

Tuesday, Eye for Nature pulled out most of the morning glories, which I had not intended.  But a few peeped out today.
