Fiery Skipper
Yep, still seeing fiery skippers in the area.
Yep. a tumbleweed (sorry, a Russian Thistle) bigger than my car.

Mitred Parakeets: I stopped to grab coffee and heard the parakeets squawking in the trees.
Mitred Parakeets:
I stopped to grab coffee and heard the parakeets squawking in the trees. These were the first two I spotted, and they stayed together like that for the whole time I was there.
Mitred Parakeet
I’m not sure how many were in the hollow at the top of this palm tree. It might have just been the two.

Another one in the same tree as the first two that I spotted.

Some birds I saw on a hike today
Some #birds I saw on a hike today:
- One of several Black Phoebes I saw around the grounds of the park
- A California Towhee that had just chased another bird away from this puddle.
- One of the clearest views I’ve had of a hummingbird away from a feeder.
- Possibly a goldfinch? There were a bunch of them in the same bush.

Fox Squirrel
Mealtime, apparently. And it wasn’t concerned with me at all.
Fox Squirrel (injured leg, SCBG)
This squirrel was running on three legs, holding it’s left front leg up. It looks like it’s injured.
