Warm sunshine

A piece of March broke off and fell into the middle of February.  I saw the thermometer reach 66° and it may have gone higher.  The wind was March-like as well as the Spring temperature. The overnight rain was still falling at breakfast, which did not deter a female oriole. Pelicans fished in the rain-dimpled creek but I had little luck taking pictures of them. 

The rain cleared off by 10am and the white throated sparrows celebrated.  I went outside an hour later without any coat.  While I was out, a wood duck drake paddled downstream.  A couple of turtles basked on a log that looked smaller than before the bad weather.
