Sunny

The weather was much like yesterday.  A Carolina wren joined us at breakfast, soon followed by pine warblers, including the half-blind male.  They ate barkbutter porridge.  The orioles, male and female, were after jelly.  White throated sparrows stayed on the ground.  A second wren arrived and one ate suet while the other worked on the barkbutter.  The orange crowned warbler got some jelly while the male oriole was getting a drink.  The mockingbird was still displeased with the menu.  

I haven't seen any ducks on the lake.  A female hoodie paddled upstream faster than I could have swum.  She left a serious wake.  An egret flew over the dam.
