A dark cloud loomed at dawn, but blue sky appeared in cloud breaks before breakfast was over. Sunshine was intermittent. The creek surface was placid despite a breeze. First a hawk then the feral tux cat interrupted the birds. A heron flew down to the dam outfall but didn't stay long.
Both downy and red bellied woodpeckers were back. And so was the butterbutt! At least I think it was the same one, from the way it sat atop the suet. Nevertheless, chickadees got some and titmice got to the seeds. The squirrel was back at the suet too.
I was just about to photograph a soaring osprey when a crow started harassing it. White throated sparrows scurried about at lunch. Chickadees were definitely interested in the summer rental. Clouds covered the sky and then retreated. At sunset the sky was clear. A nearly round moon rose.
