Apparently there was rain overnight but it had stopped before breakfast. Birds seized their moment but alas there wasn't enough light to photograph the white breasted nuthatch or the others I've now forgotten. The blue jays queued up for bark butter balls. The creek was ice-free and quiet except for a female bufflehead. Up on the lake I could barely see some Northern shoveler drakes.
I installed a fresh block of suet when I noticed the cage was completely empty. The feisty yellow rumped warbler kept a close watch on lunch. Rain returned around 1pm. White throated sparrows ignored it but I didn't see the song sparrow. The rain did not seem to bother the mockingbird.
