Glorious morning

Bright sun in a blue sky reflected in still water while birds sing.  A great blue heron, cormorants, gulls, and pelicans are fishing.

I think I glimpsed a goldfinch on the feeder.  For certain, I saw a yellow rumped warbler, along with the regulars and the sparrows.  A junco poked through the mulch.  A squirrel finished my cereal.  Robins and blue jays are hanging around.  I think the blue jays are courting - it looked like one fed another.  Crows are carrying twigs to the pines.

When we got back in the evening, hooded mergansers were out on the creek.  A first quarter moon was bright in the West around 10pm.
