The morning shower, as predicted, swept through shortly after 7am and the sky began clearing right away. A chickadee showed up immediately. And now the sun is bright. The creek is glassy again as it is most mornings. Why is it that the water surface is so placid early in the day?
It was placid again in the late afternoon and the sky was a gorgeous blue. The trees are really turning now. The lantana is half frostbitten. I found one morning glory sheltered by a downspout. K planted the gardenia clone and the bulbs out front. Bees enjoyed the warmth and crickets are still in tune. A wasp was still active.
From the dock, I could hear the rattle of a kingfisher, but I never saw it. Buffleheads have arrived. A white duck is hanging out with the mallards. There is a patch of puffballs under the redwood, but not as many as last year.
