Two blue jays came for breakfast. At lunch, the orange crowned warbler was back.It was puzzled by the ant moat. The half-blind pine warbler showed up next. Then the male Baltimore oriole discovered the jelly dish.
A squirrel prepared to leap from the redwood to the hickory, then
panicked. It tried branches at several heights then retired to the
trunk to think. Finally it ran out the branch and jumped and landed
without difficulty.
Out on the creek, a great blue heron kept watch on a hoodie drake. The rippled water looked very metallic today. Floating oak leaves resembled small ducks but I finally spotted the real bufflehhead. So of course he dived. Three female hoodies came downstream fishing as they came. They seemed very light in color but that may have been the sun.
