Cloudy Day on the Parkway

This photo was taken at Sutter's Landing Park.  The American River, which is running very fast and high is covering a walking trail.  


But all is not lost.  I spied a Bushtit in the arch of the tree.  Such a cute little bird!


On the North side of Sutter's Landing Park, I saw and heard this Wren flying very near the Tree Swallow's hole.  


Then I watched it fly right in.  It is unknown if the Tree Swallows abandoned this nest.  When the rain stops, I will check it out. 


On one of the few logs in the river, this Red Eared Slider seemed to be relaxing a bit.


Nearby, this female Mallard was preening on an almost submerged log.  She is not as colorful as her mate but she does have a bit of blue on her wing.
