The sunlit creek was glassy and nothing was frozen for a change. I think it was milder than predicted. I took advantage and went to the Rec Center pool in the morning. Before that, at breakfast the red belied woodpecker had suet. A song sparrow waded in the birdbath. Downy woodpeckers retook possession of the suet.
After lunch, I indulged in Christmas cookie decorating. While I was all sticky from rolling dough, a butterbutt bounced around the camellia right outside the kitchen window. A squirrel tried to raid the suet but the pepper drove it away.
Pelicans splashed down in the creek but not where they would be easy to
photograph. A pine warbler blazed in the sunlight. A Carolina wren
stayed in the shadows.
Sunset was gold and rose thanks to some wispy clouds in the West.
