The rain trailed off into chilly mist and drizzle and the temperature barely reached 60. Birds were famished. Three crows gathered at the suet but fled as soon as we saw each other. I photographed the female red bellied woodpecker and the female bluebird, but the mist was too thick. The orange daylily picked this weather to bloom.
The air cleared a little and I was able to capture the brown thrashers, one on the suet and one below. Carolina wrens and blue jays followed and the woodpeckers and bluebirds returned. I went out to clear some debris and caught a brown thrasher on the gable peak.
