Robins in the bayberry.

Ring-billed Gulls.

Alone on the hill with Jack this morning. Teens to start but warming. Not much wind. Beautiful sky. A vocal shrike, an active Downy Woodpecker, singing cardinal and titmouse. Robins in the bayberry.

For a moment later today I watched gulls in the parking lot.
