And wet

Rain fell overnight and the sky is gray.  Drops are still plopping in the birdbath. Chickadees and sparrows and a Carolina wren are coming to the feeder.  Cardinals and a blue jay are hanging around.  Too bad they won't perch close enough to each other for a colorful photo.  I wish I could feed jays without attracting blackbird flocks.

The white throats are getting bolder and won't let a squirrel have all the peanut bits.  Peanuts appear to make both thirsty.  A pelican perched on one of our pilings to preen.  A mallard drake and the pekin duck paddled past it. 

Lunchtime was gray and wet and deserted.
