The rainfall was light during the day and the temperature stayed in the upper 60s till dark, but the afternoon was breezy. A few mallards and geese were all the waterbirds I saw. A couple of turtles soaked up the last of the warm spell. The dwarf daffodils began blooming.
Feeder birds finally appeared after lunch. I
counted a pair of house finches, a blue jay, three female orioles, a pair of bluebirds, two yellow rumped warblers and a titmouse. Later I saw a starling. Just before dark, a band of hard rain pushed through and the temperature fell. But by 8pm it was only half way to the predicted hard freeze.
