The temperature was back in the normal range, but it did not appear that much rain fell overnight. That bad little butterbutt chased off a male pine warbler and a pair of red breasted nuthatches before I could get pictures. And later a crow harassed the osprey. I did however see a junco as well as a wren, a titmouse, and many sparrows. The red bellied woodpecker lurked in the dogwood.
Nuthatch and titmouse were still hungry at lunch. The red belly got some suet and scattered more. Ruddy ducks floated below the dam. A pelican flew past. A great black backed gull stood on the dock for a long time. Despite the chill, turtles basked on the snags by the lake. A heron stalked by the dock next to the dam. A Cooper's hawk paused in the brush.
