Rain

At least the wind has calmed.  A few regulars came to the feeder.  The rain lasted into the afternoon.  While dinner was cooking, a flotilla of geese passed in review. 

As we ate Thanksgiving dinner, glimmers of sunlight drew birds out of hiding.  In addition to the regulars, there were white-throated sparrows, three titmice, and a mockingbird. The mockingbird found something of interest in the dogwood.  But the sun didn't last. There were ripples on the creek made by something close to the bank that I could not see.
