Sunshine

The snow did not stick but the wind continued to roar, softly, almost subsonic.  Hungry wrens, warblers, white throats, and titmice joined us for breakfast.  A wren was disappointed that the mealworm dish contained only water.  So I refilled it. The ducks were down by the dam.  Pelicans flew reconnaissance over the water.

In the afternoon, I saw a robin in the hackberry. A couple of turtles hauled out onto a sunlit log on the lake. Hoodies joined their red breasted cousins.  I saw two diving birds I think were horned grebes.  They definitely had red eyes.  A ring billed gull caught an eel while a great blue heron watched.
