The creek was iced over when I got up and didn't melt completely till mid afternoon. Naturally that eliminated waterfowl. After mid day a great egret fished below the dam where the current had hastened melting. Later a great blue heron rested on the dock nearest the dam.
There was not a lot of feeder activity. The pine warbler brightened the afternoon as he fed on the suet. A downy woodpecker wanted a share.
The ice i pulled out of the birdbath lay on the mulch with no sign of melting. Low tide was way out, exposing mud on both sides of the creek. I don't believe the lake ever thawed.
