Gray

The overcast made the light at breakfast too low for close ups.  I saw titmice, sparrows, a pair of downy woodpeckers, an oriole, pine and yellow rumped warblers.  Then I had to leave for a meeting.

At lunch,  I glimpsed a bufflehead and a heron.  Something that looked like a sheet of thin,clear plastic slowly floated downstream. A squirrel bounced around under the cedar, then dug up a nut.

Nuthatches came to both feeders.  The female red bellied woodpecker dislodged a pine warbler from the suet.  Titmice, the butterbutt, the oriole, and sparrows were back, but a female house finch drove off all that wanted seeds.  A song sparrow joined the white throats.  It was not intimidated by the bossy finch.
