Rainy mist, again

And the prediction was for partly cloudy.  Phooey.  It's not really wet, but very dull. 

A tufted titmouse and a Carolina wren joined the regulars for lunch.  Blue jays and mockingbirds quarreled in the beauty berry, then two mockingbirds got into a tiff round and round the redwood.

The squirrel that had the warble doesn't any more.  Its shoulder is raggedy but healing.

A weird fungus has appeared under the oak.  It doesn't look exactly like last year's weeping conk, but it might be one.  

A brown headed nuthatch returned late this afternoon!  I last saw one in early September.  The argiope continues to guard the front door - I hope it's still here for Halloween. A waxing moon peeked briefly through the cloud cover.
