Unsettled weather

We had sunshine and showers and everything in between.   A blue jay worked on the suet.  This did not please the mockingbirds and a kerfuffle ensued.  A Carolina wren investigated all the possible food sources.  The black cat stared into the pool.  I don't know if it was thirsty or hoping for fish.  I'm thankful it hasn't shown much interest in birds.  A convoy of female mallards paddled upstream.  I thought there might be ducklings but they all looked like adults.  

The male pileated had a go at the suet.  I think the crows chased a hawk but I couldn't get a good look at what was going on.  A female bluebird was sad over the empty dish but I wasn't going to put food out just to let it get soggy from rain.
