Sunny

Early in the morning a Carolina wren poked into the mulch and hopped around, but it never came back.   After lunch, a female downy snacked on suet. 

What do yellow jackets find so delightful in the arbor vita leaves?  Actually I suppose I should say needles, but they look more like leaves.  And I was surprised to see the yellow jackets our in such cold air, even in a sheltered and sunny spot. The were also on the fatsia flowers which made more sense. 

The last couple of days stripped some trees and colored the leaves that had still been green.  The nuthatches were back or more suet.  And a goldfinch dressed for winter perched on the feeder hanger but did not feed.
