Orioles and wrens were the first to arrive. Downy woodpeckers followed. I saw cormorants headed downstream - I must have missed them driving fish up the creek. They were all waiting when I got home for lunch, plus titmice, white throats (including this odd-looking one), the song sparrow, and a nuthatch. Crows bounced around the sky on the wind.
Lots of mallards paddled around in the afternoon, as did a female bufflehead. I saw a couple of herons and a couple of egrets and one pelican. The sky clouded up and looked threatening but nothing came of it and the clouds moved off SE in the late afternoon.
