An escapee from a flower bed
Mallard
These two mallards were walking along and quacking, like a couple out for a stroll and conversation.

Canada Goose
Usually the geese have the run of the park, but maybe they all gave up on free food during the 5-6 weeks the park was closed to people. (Unlike the ducks, who set up camp at the perimeter where people could walk by and still toss them bread.) I only saw three.
American Coot
Sometimes I see whole flocks. Today I only saw three or four.
House Sparrow
Cichorieae (in a pickup truck)
Black Phoebe
Lesser Goldfinch (major motion blur)
I saw a pair of what I think were goldfinches on this cable. Unfortunately they took off as soon as I snapped the shutter trying to photograph this one. You can at least tell that it’s got a very yellow body and less yellow wings.
A birb caught in the act of NOPE!
Brewer’s Blackbird (on roof)
There were two of these birds. I couldn’t tell what they were from a distance except they didn’t look like crows.

Healthy Savings on Corona
To be fair, the shelf also features Modelo and Dos Equis, so it’s clearly a sale for May 5, but I’m not so sure about those “healthy” savings

West Coast Lady
Spotted a Monarch butterfly today, and it actually landed and held still long enough for me to get a clear photo.

Tree Squirrels
I saw this squirrel next to a tree while walking down the sidewalk. I stopped, we both stared at each other for a moment, then it went around the tree. I got down to take a second photo and it stood up on its hind legs, posing, though it gave up and realized I wasn’t going to feed it by the time I had the camera ready.
