Gray does not suit Cinco de Mayo but that's what we had. Only one turtle made the effort to climb out of the water. A few raindrops landed on the windshield as I left for Newport News and by the time I arrived it was really raining. The process reversed as I retraced my route. All I saw in the estuary was two gulls on a light pole.
After I got home, not only did the rain stop, the sky lightened and there were even a few minutes of sunshine. A male goldfinch hung out in the dogwood. The hummer returned or else another female arrived. Bluebirds gave me the look that signaled the bark butter balls were all gone so I hobbled out with more. And a blue jay swooped down to stuff its beak. I saw but didn't get a picture of an osprey and a red bellied woodpecker.
