It was warmer and sunnier than expected, but with a gusty wind that peeled off leaves as soon as they turned color. The cloud cover was thin and
pleated or corrugated during the morning. This pattern doesn't seem to be predictive of any particular weather, but NOAA says there will be rain tomorrow. My ad hoc humidity gauge, a pine cone, closed up tight in the damp air.
A female downy woodpecker visited the suet, finally. The seed feeder only saw chickadees so it was a black-and-white bird day. A squirrel sat on a outdoor chair with an acorn in its mouth. I could see lots of insects catching the sunlight as they zipped around, but only a yellow jacket that paused on the post was identifiable.
