Bright morning, dull afternoon

A junco poked through the mulch alongside the sparrows.  Cardinals and chickadees hogged the feeder.  The sun is shining but the sky is lightly veiled and dotted with small cumulus.

It clouded over at lunchtime.  I saw a pelican and an osprey and many geese.  I played with the new camera - it's powerful enough that I could see any feathers that were out of place.  But the birds mostly disappeared leaving me little to practice on, but flowers. 

At supper, we saw warblers flying after bugs.  Sunset was streaky with clouds.
