Saw this #birb on a suburban bike path today. Some kind of Phoebe, apparently https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/37541271
Red-Tailed Hawk (on transmission tower, early Jan.)
And this hawk(?) is definitely *not* a birb…but I saw it on the same bike path in the middle of the suburbs. It landed on a transmission tower and looked around for a few minutes before flying off. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/37541270 #birds #nature

Hawkspotting on K2R
This solitary hawk(?) landed in the scaffolding of a transmission tower above a suburban bike path, and stayed there, looking around, while I walked closer to it. After a few minutes, it flew off to another tower.
This is really cool: capturing images of birds’ flight trails.

I could *hear* the bird singing, but had to really look before I could finally spot it.

This and another pelican swam past each other. One started flapping its wings as they approached, and then stopped once they’d passed each other.

A flock of birds over sailboats on Monterey Bay. It was raining for most of the road trip, but Friday had some nice sunny weather in between storms, and I got to walk along the shore for a bit.
