Rain

The pileated woodpecker was not deterred by the rain, but few other birds showed up.  That might have been because there were no barkbutter balls or mealworms slowly disintegrating into rain soup.  I think I saw bluebirds in the pecan tree when I came home.  I hope they've been building a nest in the birdhouse.  

A flock of buffleheads fished in the afternoon.  I saw an egret briefly.  Later, the sky must have cleared because sunset lit up distinct cumulus puffs.
