The clouds were back with only occasional glimmers of sun. A sudden flurry of birds came when I was busy and by the time my hands were free, they were gone. I remember a wren, white throats, and juncos. I did catch a yellow rumped and a pine warbler, a tufted titmouse, and a downy woodpecker.
A pair of hoodies paddled upstream with the drake doing his strut. A great blue heron perched up in a pine growing on the dam. A pelican flew down the creek but behind a screen of trees.
I had to leave right after lunch and didn't get back till after dark. Dramatic clouds streamed out of the Southwest at 1:30pm. As the afternoon continued, the temperature took a nosedive.
