It was still chilly. The air was much calmer than yesterday so the creek mirrored sunlit trees. Leaves were getting very colorful. Downy woodpeckers were back at the suet.
I found a mud wasp's nest underneath a little outdoor table. A pine warbler briefly clung to the bark of the oak. A bluebird blended in with the oak leaves.
Canada geese glided through reflections. It's time the migrant ducks arrived but all I saw for sure were mallards, some tipping head-down to feed. I thought I glimpsed a merganser but I couldn't be sure. Then a pied-bill grebe paddled downstream.
Some idiot mowed the marsh grass on the dam with a small "Cat." I'm not sure what you'd call the device. Despite the noise, turtles sunned themselves on the lake.
