It was a day of much running around town while the temperature climbed. The birdbath was frozen when we got up. Birds were plentiful for a while, then they vanished. The brown thrasher was particularly gifted at vanishing and I never got a picture. The blue jay, however, did get caught on camera raiding the bark butter balls.
The female downy woodpecker was about to take her turn at the suet when the female red bellied woodpecker barged in.
Female buffleheads paddled through rough water. Two egrets waded below the dock next to the dam. One took off upstream and the other flew downstream. The tide was very low.
A Carolina wren was in its favorite spot in the dogwood. Crows were acting strange, perhaps courting? One carried a twig around and another tried to take it away.
