Windy

The pair of wrens joined us for breakfast, one on the barkbutter, the other on the suet.  White throated sparrows were up early too.  At least four pelicans flew past repeatedly, often plunging into the creek, though I didn't see any catch a fish.  They probably did when not in sight.  Hooded mergansers and buffleheads were fishing too, though not for the same size catch.  

At lunch time several brown headed nuthatches raided the seed feeder.  The warblers were busy feeding as well.  An egret preened on a stump on the lake while the wind blew through its aigrettes.  A couple of cormorants did the same on a log.  The lake appeared to be rushing toward the dam though I saw no sign at the outflow.  A small flock of geese marched single file up and over the dam.
