In the morning, there were ice crystals in the birdbath. I saw pelicans and buffleheads but didn't get pictures. A female hoodie paddled out of sight on the lake.
Life on the patio took my attention. Pine warblers searched everywhere for food. Myrtle warblers seemed uncertain how to get a share. The male and three female orioles squabbled a bit over jelly. A blue jay checked out the bark butter. White throats stayed with the mulch. The downy woodpeckers wanted the suet all to themselves.
A flock of blackbirds worked its way along the yards across the creek and finally came over to my side. After lunch, a Carolina wren joined the buffet line.
