A white blanket covered much of the sky in the early morning. It dissolved into stripss running East to West as the morning progressed. A Carolina wren found mealworm bits left from yesterday in the rosemary. White throated sparrows flew up to the feeder rather than just waiting for seeds to fall. Titmice joined the regulars on the feeder. A blue jay appeared to be pulling dead twigs off the dogwood. A male towhee scoured the ground for fallen food. Apparently he liked the stale barley I tossed out for squirrels. 
It was windy at lunch and no birds came to feed. The sky was hazy blue and white. An egret fished at the dam outfall until a pair of geese came splashing through. The egret flew up above the spillway and waited for the geese t get out of the fishin' hole. I think the geese were doing their version of courting.At supper, two titmice were chased off by a couple of white throats. Sunset was pink cloud bars across a gold sky.
