The brown thrasher returned for more suet. The red bellied woodpecker put an end to that. But the brown thrasher came back later.
A bufflehead drake paddled upstream. Turtles basked on the log in the lake. A pileated woodpecker landed on the post and examined the suet but flew off before I could get a photo.
The grass was full of robins. I caught a blue jay preening in the wild cherry. Then it took a turn at the suet. A bluebird landed on the seed feeder but seemed very puzzled by sunflower seeds.
We took a walk in the neighborhood and spotted mockingbirds establishing their territories. White throats were eating maple seeds. Yellow jacket queens searched for nest sites. A red bellied woodpecker worked on a dead limb in an overgrown yard. A group of ant hills were close together and among them was a small patch of bluets.
The bumblebees had already fertilized a lot of blueberry blossoms. A sprinkle of unpredicted rain followed our walk.
