Raining leaves

The overcast sky began to rain about mid morning. There wasn't much wind but leaves kept drifting down. 

I saw a Carolina wren on the bark butter. Downy woodpeckers and white throated sparrows came for lunch.  Several herons and a pelican flew over the creek.  Crows chased a hawk. 

The rain stopped in the afternoon and surfaces began to dry though the sky stayed overcast.  Sunset finally lit them from beneath.
