Snowbirds

The creek was iced again.  Finally a couple of juncos showed up, albeit very briefly.  They must have heard the weather prediction.  White throats may have made them unwelcome.  A white breasted nuthatch got well fed today in repeated visits.  The tux cat, fortunately, did not get fed.  

Blue jays dug into the barkbutter balls and I saw the tailless blue jay again.  A myrtle warbler flaunted its butterbutt.  The mockingbird puffed up against the cold.  A bluebird observed from atop the post.  Starlings, warblers, and a Carolina wren ate suet which was rapidly shrinking.  Warblers also took barkbutter balls.  A great blue heron flew upstream.  The sky clouded over in the afternoon, maybe getting ready to snow.
