Another windy day brought pelicans up the creek even though the West wind was warm. With their necks turned brown, some were clearly ready to breed. In the morning I also saw a Carolina wren, a mockingbird, a blue jay, a brown headed nuthatch, and a couple of bluebirds, and the camera missed them all.
Big queen carpenter and bumblebees seemed able to ignore the wind as they zoomed around collecting nectar and pollen. A paper wasp was also working hard. I saw a grass spider and several webs. I counted ten turtles on their log.
The white gulls took over the fishing in the afternoon. I managed to capture a red bellied woodpecker on the suet and a sentinel starling watching me from the oak. A white throated sparrow foraged under the camellia.
