It was still freezing when I got up but the day warmed rapidly. I restocked the feeders and the orioles noticed right away. So did starlings. I also poured hot water in the birdbath. White throats did their own thing, ignoring the feeders in favor of the fallen. Warblers and wrens prowled around the bigger birds. Bluebirds were late to the feast.
In the morning the sky was streaky and there was sunshine, but by afternoon, it was mostly overcast. The bulb shoots seemed to have survived the hard freeze. The creek was placid and low tide was very low with the full moon. I saw geese, buffleheads, herons and a pelican.
