Spring for a day

The temperature was in the 70s though the sky was more gray than blue, and there was enough wind to make waves on the creek. Both red bellied woodpeckers visited.  The yellow rumped warbler continued its vigil over the suet.  A starling ignored the butterbutt and ate what it wanted. 

Several pelicans fished but the gulls were mostly absent.  A few hoodies paddled around and a heron perched on the boatlift.  The The fallen trees lining the lake were completely covered in turtles.
