Lots of bluebirds and warblers visited throughout the day. In the morning I saw more yellow rumped warblers.Occasionally a mockingbird sneaked in for a barkbutter ball. Sparrows scurried around but never posed. The red bellied woodpecker played hard to get. Blue jays got stuffed.
The temperature was 60
°F for several afternoon hours with mostly blue sky and a breeze.. I saw more pine warblers after lunch though there were still butterbutts around. A female red-winged blackbird popped up but I only got one bad picture before she scooted back down to the shoreline. Two turtles took advantage of the sunshine.
I had hopes of taking pictures from the dock but the missing planks convinced me to turn back. There were still a few colorful leaves on the blueberry bushes and the sweet gum. I surprised a magnolia green jumper and a centipede but neither stayed for a photo. The yellow rose, the paperwhite narcissus and, of course, the camellia were in bloom for insects lured out by the warmth.
