Breezy

The sky seemed lightly hazed despite the bright sunlight.  Most trees were bare but oak leaves continued to fall.  Mallards and geese slurped up food off the creek surface.  A couple of turtles basked on the lake log. 

Pine and orange crowned warblers, downy woodpeckers, white throated and song sparrows came to the feeders along with the regulars.

At sunset, there were no clouds but a salmon glow above the Western horizon blended into twilight blue.  The quarter moon was crisp edged.
