Busy breakfast

The wrens reappeared, even though the mealworm dish was down to fragments and rainwater.  A male pine warbler tried to share the suet (which was disappearing fast) with a downy woodpecker but the female red belly displaced them both.  The oriole was back too, even though the jelly had turned to juice.  A nuthatch, four yellow rumped warblers and a female pine warbler, many white throated sparrows and a song sparrow all came for breakfast. 

And then there was a fish drive with many cormorants, circling gulls, cruising pelicans, and egrets and herons trying to keep up.  Soon they all came back downstream.

Then I had to leave to catch a plane.
