All day rain

The rain and the Northeast wind made a mess of the windows but I took a bunch of pictures anyway.  During a lull, I went outside and squeegeed the glass.  But I never put any food in the dishes, figuring it would turn to mush.  The pair of mockingbirds had to be content with suet.  The same with the bluebirds.  The poor birds looked drenched. 

The plants were loving the weather.  The sunflower seem to grow visibly taller.  Daylilies bloomed all along the pool.  The rain turned to mist at times. 

The pileated pair came together and, as usual, he got the suet first.  Her crest was up and stiff so I could tell she was mad at him.  While they were arguing a mockingbird snatched a bite of suet.  The female did finally get a turn at the suet.  

The flock of mallards adopted the new sandy beach.
