Summery day

The creek was flat as a mirror but dusty with pollen.  A pair of Carolina wrens joined us for breakfast.   Then a mockingbird dislodged the wren on the suet.  A squirrel foraged with the white throats.  A cardinal and a bluebird, both males, disputed the use of the seed feeder.  Blue jays stayed with their favorite barkbutter balls.  The male red belly felt the same.  

The black and white cat prowled around the pool.  By then it was very warm.  I started planting seeds.  I saw a cormorant trying to swallow a fish.  Bachelor mallards paddled around.  An egret fished below the dam.  The female pileated came for an evening suet snack.
