It wasn't nearly as warm as yesterday, but still warmer than expected for this time of year. A female oriole popped up early on the suet. Then the male red bellied woodpecker took over. I wonder if the reason only one comes at a time is that they are trading off incubating duty? The downy woodpeckers come together, but not out of love apparently.
Titmice were hungry for everything. Blue jays got the best of me again. But a Carolina wren kindly posed. The myrtle warbler tried to find the wrens. White throats searched for fallen seeds. The female red bellied woodpecker arrived a couple hours after the male.
A buzzard flew over the flat water. A housefly showed up indoors. One pine tree showed flower buds. Soon everything will be dusted with gold.
