Cloudy, then rain

Dark clouds blew off the ocean but blue sky and sun peeked through.  A female hummer was very hungry and found the old feeder quite acceptable.  A couple of blue jays and several grackles came and went quickly.  The usual egret fished at the dam outfall.

A rain shower fell as we ate lunch.  (We ate early  so as to be done grilling before the rain.)  The white breasted nuthatch was back.  It watched from the roof as a cardinal occupied the feeder.  When it couldn't stand waiting any more, it flew to the post and hopped around impatiently. 

The hummer continued to visit and a titmouse appeared. The hummer kept coming right into the twilight.
