Hawk again

The sun shone and the creek was placid.  I was gone till mid morning and when I returned there weren't any birds.  But at lunch we had a show.  K saw a hawk again but still screened by twigs.  I don't know if they forgot it was there, but after a while, songbirds came to the feeders.  The boldest was a Carolina wren that wanted suet.  White throats began to forage.  Eventually the hawk left.  

The red bellied woodpecker returned to the suet.   Some yellow rumped warblers searched for fallen food.  One sampled the goodies in the dish but was soon supplanted by a bluebird.  A pine warbler asserted rank on the warbler pecking order.  Both brown headed and white breasted nuthatches visited.  A goldfinch looked around but settled for water.
