Soaked

It rained all morning, dried for about an hour mid day, and then started up again.  It wasn't stormy, just gray, though there was some wind.  The ditches and retention ponds were full, also badly drained parking lots.  And I had to go out both morning and afternoon.

A great egret and four snowy egrets clustered around the water spilling from the dam.  The hummer feeder got diluted to their disgust.  And their was no question of putting anything in the dish which was full of rainwater.  So only the seed eaters got fed, including titmice.  All looked pretty bedraggled.  The wrens had to keep going despite the weather.
