It was a bit warmer so naturally it was wet. When I first got up, there was sunshine on the treetops but clouds covered the sky very quickly. A male bufflehead dived in the creek while a heron perched on a lake snag. The tide was up in the grass.
The rain began in the late morning. Songbirds were busy when we got home. A white throat took a bath. A Carolina wren got away without a photo. Chickadees and cardinals dashed for seeds when the rain slackened. A dove poked around underneath.
On the creek, buffleheads and hoodies fished in the rain. I took the long way back from the library and saw a heron and mallards at the head end of the lake. Across the road, in the upper lake, an egret waited and a couple of small ducks floated.
