The sun was out at breakfast, perking up the flowers. The wind wasn't so strong and the creek was, if not quiet, at least not choppy. Downy woodpeckers showed up right away. An osprey landed in the pines across the creek. I caught it taking off again.
During the morning, clouds flowed up from the South. A little before noon, rain began to fall gently. It lasted a couple of hours. White throats and the usual three were untroubled by it. The downy used the suet as shelter. I saw the warbler that has mostly changed to summer feathers.
There was intermittent sunshine and dark clouds during the afternoon. A starling came for suet but was easily scared off. A tiger? beetle clung to an azalea leaf. Pollen made swirls on the creek surface. The male red bellied woodpecker tok a turn on the suet. A downpour around 5pm struck the North windows.
