Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Chilly
This was another chilly, breezy, sunny day with not much to report. I was briefly fooled by a house finch with some odd feathers around her head. Cardinals and chickadees also ate seeds. The female downy wanted seeds but if she comes back tomorrow, she'll also find suet. I decided to call it a year for the hummer feeder and hang the first block of suet in its place. A bird was hopping around inside the red cedar but it didn't cooperate with the camera. I admit I was hoping for a kinglet. Scattered maple leaves began to turn as did a couple of leaves on the domestic cherry. Lots of fluff blue in from the saltbush and continued to the South. Crows gathered looking for barkbutter balls.
