It was not as warm as yesterday and the wind drove the point home. Pelicans preferred the creek to open water. The woodpeckers had a fresh block of suet, thanks to K. White throats kept cleaning up what other birds let fall. A myrtle warbler had more trouble finding food it could eat. The house finches were looking very red. The mallard drakes followed a hen who tried to stay just out of reach. Nuthatches and titmice came to the feeder.
On my way into Norfolk around sunset, I looked for the flock of crows that gathers each evening around the intersection of 64 and 264, just South of Leigh Hospital. They were distant flecks over the hospital instead of overhead. This article suggests they are migrants rather than the resident crows.
