Ducks were more sheltered on the creek. Mallards slurped up wind-blown detritus.Hoodies and cormorants fished. I don't know what the geese were after. The yellow rose buds and the pimento peppers looked hopeful. Twilight was glorious with vividly colored clouds, a vibrant afterglow in the West, and then two sharp-edged planets in the crisp, clear air.
Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Cold and bright
Bright sunshine was belied by an icy wind that deterred feeder birds. Titmice made forays for seeds but in between, they hung out in the camellia. I didn't see any pollinators today
