There was rain overnight apparently, which surprised me because the sky was so clear last night. Dawn was pretty but then the sun disappeared. The downy pair and the two Carolina wrens continued to defeat the warbler's best efforts to protect "its" suet. I think I saw it chase another warbler away. A song and a white throated sparrow showed up, along with a junco. Then the tux cat came to bird watch.
The sky cleared in the late morning. Geese, mallards, and buffleheads paddled around the creek. I later discovered that odd behavior by the female mallard was a courting display called "nod-swimming."
The dredge survey boat came upstream in the late afternoon. A couple of brown ducks paddled on the lake above the dam.
