Hints of blue sky

The overcast is more broken the further West I look.  The clouds were edged with peach earlier.  Sparrows were breakfasting and an egret landed on our side of the creek.

Mid morning brought titmice, all the regulars, juncos, and a warbler. A heron landed on the boat lift and a pelican flew upstream. The money plant is beginning to get taller for its second year when it flowers.    Crows harassed a large bird, possibly an eagle.

And by 11am the ski was blue. At lunch, it seemed like a host of pelicans were in the air.  Two nearly collided. It is quite windy - March is not ending like a lamb.

By late afternoon, the feeder was back to sparrows and chickadees.  I think I saw the warbler again.  Some men in a boat looked official, as thought they might be planning the summer's dredging.
