Rain

Yesterday was gray and damp, though warmer.  A crow and a squirrel were interested in a clump of day lily stalks but I don't know why.  I saw one hoodie drake on the creek.  The domestic cherry turned orange.  Mrs. Downy was back. 

The rain began in earnest overnight and by breakfast the ant moat and the birdbath were overflowing.  I thought I saw a duck but it was a wretched styrofoam cup.  When the rain finally slacked off after lunch, the female downy came for suet.  Chickadees followed, wanting seeds.  Eventually, I did see ducks but the camera struggled with the raindrops on the glass.  There were at least three hoodie drakes.  A pine warbler had some suet.
