We breakfasted on Standard Time with titmice. After lunch, I saw a brown headed nuthatch and a downy woodpecker. A brief flurry of birds left me an impression of yellow which might have been a pine warbler, or a trick of light. Fluff blew from the saltbushes. And it was dark by 5:30pm.
A question that nagged me was whether we could have an Election Day fall during Daylight Saving Time. I think so because the Election rule is first Tuesday after the first Monday of November. Daylight Saving ends on the first Sunday of November. So in a year when November 1st is a Monday then Tuesday would be Election Day but Daylight Saving would not end till the following Sunday, November 7th.
