The wind dried off the overnight rain. Lots of chickadees are hungry this morning. A Carolina wren checked out the underside of the grill while a cardinal prowled through the pea vine. The saltbush or groundsel is a mass of white tufts.
The weather reports warn of coastal flooding so I checked and the water has risen to the top of the doc with a couple of hours to go before high tide. Between the chill and the wind, most of the bees stayed home. One clings unmoving to a lavender blossom.
At least one squirrel definitely has
warbles. Cardinals and finches came for lunch. One cardinal is beginning to tip the counterweight. It pushed finches and chickadees off the feeder perch but that wasn't enough to reopen the trough.
