Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Chilly
Sunrise was lovely with just enough clouds to show off their smoky peach tints. Later the clouds disappeared and the sky became a crystalline blue. But even a bright sun couldn't warm up the cold wind. The new moon tide ran high with the wind. A red spotted purple defied the gusts. Turtles covered their favorite log, soaking up sunshine. A great blue heron flew over the house (defecating as it flew), then landed and preened atop a post. Crows set up a cacophony so I watched for a hawk, but no luck. A mockingbird fussed in the sakaki.
