Before I left, there was a downy woodpecker on the suet.
On the way over the CBBT, flotillas of dark ducks bobbed on the waves near the tunnel islands. The wind tore spray off huge waves where the currents met. Others in the car saw dolphins riding the waves. Bits of ice fell from the sky but didn't stick as the temperature was several degrees above freezing.
Our morning meeting went well. The sleet had stopped by lunch time but the wind was still rough. We went to a seafood place where I had conch fritters. But then the afternoon meeting was delayed an hour.
As we returned home, the setting sun colored a thin streak of overcast. I saw two deer but they were barely visible in the shadow of forest. Gulls, mostly great blackbacks, rode the thermals off the bridge asphalt. I saw a lighted fishing trawler in the distance. It was quite dark when we reached land and dispersed.
