A pileated woodpecker teased us at breakfast. It made several fly-bys and landed on the post once, but bolted without eating any suet. I never got even a bad photo. The downy woodpeckers were fine with the new suet arrangement, but the red bellies were more dubious. Eventually they got it.
Juncos, sparrows, and a Carolina wren foraged for fallen bits. A yellow rumped warbler wanted suet but hadn't figured out how to get it. Blue jays, and starlings went for bark butter balls.I saw a thrush at the far end of the pool, but rain, low light, and distance limited the camera. It probably arrived on the South wind along with yesterday's oriole.
Red breasted mergansers and gulls fished. Light rain started and stopped repeatedly during the day. The sky stayed overcast all day.
