A brown headed nuthatch started the day. A myrtle warbler came for suet. The dove was back foraging with the white throats. A pair of bluebirds made repeated forays for seeds. They also sought water from the pool cover so I suspect the ant moat was dry. The money plants started to bloom. The temperature climbed into the 80s and was still in the mid 70s at 8pm.
Clearly the pileateds did not like us leaving the plastic on the suet because they have not visited since we did that to discourage the starlings. Today the male gave us another chance. He seemed brighter red than we remembered. Perhaps he was trying to get the female to forgive him for being rude all Winter?
