A small convoy of buffleheads cruised the creek. A male downy woodpecker came for suet.Around noon, I spotted a blue jay and a black swallowtail. A dragonfly and a cabbage white passed through at lunch. Chickadees appreciated my chasing a squirrel off the suet.
The oak blossoms were falling and blowing and even getting caught on spider threads. Azaleas were starting to bloom and there were buds on an iris. The domestic cherry had scattered flowers. The coral honeysuckle was covered with flowers - a good thing if a hummingbird arrives early. There were a few violets in the grass. An osprey circled. A titmouse posed in the oak.Toward evening, three egrets sorted themselves out along the bank under the dam according to some rule only they understand. Titmice and chickadees came for bedtime snacks.
