Flicker

High clouds looked like a blend of cirrus and contrails.  One tiny patch of snow remained, not enough for a snowball.  A mockingbird tried for some suet while a blue jay watched from the trees.  A male bluebird ate seeds and may have bathed.  A myrtle warbler tried to boss other birds.  Both brown headed and white breasted nuthatches visited the seed feeder.  They didn't seem to interact but arrived sequentially. 

I spotted a flicker on the trunk of the dogwood across the pool steps.  It came down and poked through the leaf litter.  A titmouse visited in the late afternoon for barkbutter balls as well as seeds.
