Rain

I noticed the sky was clouded when I went to bed.  The morning rain was gentle and not wind-driven despite the meteorologists' concern about Tropical Storm Nestor. The weather got nastier mid day.  There were lulls, though when the seed eaters came out.  I actually saw a chickadee shove a cardinal off the perch!  I glimpsed a Carolina wren and a blue jay through the rain streaks.

In the afternoon, a male kingfisher perched on a piling downstream.  On the dam in the background were an egret and a great blue heron.  Something was busy under the water at the shoreline, making ripples. Low light and rain spatters on the glass messed up a lot of photos.
