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

Green day
The storm went with the night and morning was full of sunshine and birds. The temperature had dropped to 40, but not to the predicted freeze. Sparrows foraged with a couple of doves. A Carolina wren ate barkbutter while a myrtle warbler waited. A female bluebird chose seeds but a blue jay stayed with barkbutter balls. Then the bluebirds wanted barkbutter balls too. The male pileated came for lunch. I hope he takes some back to the female. Then a starling found the barkbutter balls almost gone. So it tried the suet the pileated was eating. The woodpecker didn't seem bothered but the starling was taken aback, literally.
