Temperature drop

The creek was lovely at breakfast with magenta azaleas in the foreground and a pair of wood ducks paddling by.  Even though the temperature dropped about 20° from yesterday, Spring clearly had arrived.  A few violets were blooming.  The yellow daffodils were about finished and the "fried eggs" narcissus were about to pop.  Still, there were pelicans fishing on the creek.  

The starlings and pileated woodpeckers tore through the suet.  Warblers hoped I would refill the dishes.  The female red bellied woodpecker dug seeds out of the feeder.  A couple of blue jays kept an eye on the barkbutter dish.  A cabbage white circled the pool aimlessly.
