Two or three of these doves were wandering around.

Lesser Goldfinch
All three of these birds (lesser goldfinches, maybe? I have seen them in the general area.) were in the same tree. I think there were several others based on the sound, but it was hard to tell since the yellow birds blended in so well with the yellow-green leaves.

Heermann’s Gull
Western Bluebirds
Three of I’m not sure how many bluebirds that seemed remarkably unconcerned about the dog park nearby.
Pelican above the bluffs
Walked down to the pier on a gloomy day while my car was in the shop. People were pretty good at spreading out and wearing masks (prob. because the city started fining people back in summer).
Among other shorebirds, I saw a group of a half dozen pelicans whirling around and diving for fish.
Feral Pigeon (brown, at pier)
Crows seen through this morning’s fog
Crows seen through this morning’s fog. I ended up darkening the image a bit, but decided not to desaturate it any further.
Audubon’s Warbler
Audubon’s Warbler, spotted on top of a lamp post in the park the other morning.
A black phoebe perched on the garage roof
A black phoebe perched on the garage roof, where it landed after deciding I’d gotten a little too close to the fence it was perched on beforehand.

A pair of mourning doves…
A pair of mourning doves that have been hanging out in the front yard lately. Remarkably unconcerned by anyone walking by.
Parakeets in Pine Trees
I don’t usually think about parakeets spending time in pine trees, but the feral population around here isn’t exactly particular about what types of trees they perch in.
We have liftoff!…
Sometimes it’s hard to get a good view of the wildlife.
Some wildlife I spotted on a hike today.
Some wildlife I spotted on a hike today. It was really nice in the shade, but it was also very hilly, and uncomfortably warm in the sun. I ended up staggering back to the car at the end.
The yellow and black bird is some sort of oriole. The black and white one is a black phoebe. I think the rabbit is a desert cottontail.
