At breakfast, the creek was a glowing mirror. The pileated woodpeckers were up with the sun. Soon the female red bellied woodpecker arrived. Warblers and bluebirds were hungry too. A mockingbird scurried around under the feeders. Pelicans, geese, egrets, and cormorants flew past.
A brown headed nuthatch feasted on seeds. Orioles arrived for their favorite foods. A white throated sparrow rummaged in the mulch. It was joined by a female junco and a chipping sparrow. Then the cat pounced out of nowhere. I called the dog and he obliged.
By lunch time the sky had clouded over. An egret flew to land across the creek but didn't stay long. A great blue heron watched the lake. Two turtles sat on the log. More pelicans flew by. A myrtle warbler found the block of suet outside my window.
