Cold front

Morning belonged to a different day from afternoon!  And evening was different from both. A pine warbler came for breakfast in the warm sunshine.  I saw a blue jay.  Then we left.  While we were gone a wall of rain cloud slammed us and kept going, having dropped the temperature from the 70s to the 50s.  March did not depart like a lamb. 

Shortly after we got home, the clouds broke apart and the wind began to dry every surface.  Not all that much water fell - the birdbath wasn't half full.  A downy woodpecker hurried to the suet.  The pine warbler reappeared.  Titmice got their seeds faster than I could get the camera.  Buffleheads dived all over the creek.  I saw a fish cross the water in three leaps!  Sunset tinted the remaining clouds and their reflections.  Egrets congregated in a tree by the lake.
