The day began in the low 60s with blue sky and sunshine, but the wind chill was powerful. Hooded mergansers were out fishing before the sun rose high enough to light up the water. Later, pelicans joined the hoodies. Wind roughened the creek and made tree limbs thrash. In the afternoon the temperature slowly dropped.
The pileated woodpeckers returned for breakfast. Warblers were disappointed by rainwater instead of barkbutter. A bluebird glared at me till I refilled the dish. The wind was tough on suet eaters. Orioles arrived after I put out more jelly. Then the cat came back.
