It was sunny but cool and breezy. A white breasted nuthatch was scared off the feeder by a mockingbird. The mockingbird wasn't even interested in seeds. It just wanted a drink. What I think was the same nuthatch lurked behind the post but all I could see was an eye and a beak. Later I saw the mockingbird on a now-leafless maple branch. The wind has been stripping leaves off trees as fast as they turn. Surprisingly, the dogwood, which turned the earliest, still had plenty of leaves.
