Rain

It is still and the rain is falling straight.  Titmice joined chickadees and cardinals on the feeder.  Sparrows are keeping under cover in the peavine.  A mockingbird is defending the beautyberry. 

By noon the rain stopped, the sky cleared somewhat and there were flickers of sun and a breeze.  A male towhee strutted out then ducked into the peavine.  Two Carolina wrens inspected the patio.

But the sun didn't last - clouds are scudding East in advance of the cold front.

Later, mid-afternoon, it's back to featureless overcast.  But the pavement is drying.  Bot male and female towhee are foraging in the peavine jungle. I don't know why all the photos  came out fuzzy - water on the window?
