Morning was warm and the sky was blue. The only sight at breakfast was a cormorant acting weird. It appeared to be trying to keep its wings out of the water while paddling furiously. I had to rush off to an appointment. Lots of mockingbirds were out performing as I came home.
I saw the first skinklet of the year at lunch time. The poor thing probably had no idea the temperature would soon to drop. I glimpsed the red bellied woodpecker but it dropped out of sight behind a bush. A myrtle warbler was almost dressed for summer as it ate bark butter.
Storm clouds moved in and sprinkles started around 5pm Egrets hung out around the dam outfall. A great blue heron perched by the lake and another hiked along the bulkhead. Two bufflehead drakes and a female went downstream in the rain, diving and popping up to dive again.
