I saw two hummers fighting around one of my feeders, which probably explains why the fluid has been going down faster than usual. One looked like a mature male (lots of red on its head) while the other one looked like this bird, which showed up later in the afternoon.
Reminds me of the...

Monday afternoon (9-28-2020) I set up on the back deck for the first time in ages. It got really warm.
A beautiful juvie light morph red-tailed hawk perched in a tree on the northern edge of Pine Ridge Park, then flew north over my house. It is about time for the winter visiting red-tails to...

Saturday afternoon (9-26-2020) the flock of bushtits and a black-capped chickadee visited the suet feeder that hangs on the back shed.

On 9-14-2020 I finally caught the flock of band-tailed pigeons that roost in a neighbor's tree foraging under my seed feeders. I suspect that one of the birds landed on the peanut feeder and tilted it so that peanuts spilled on the ground. I took these shots through the sliding glass door as...

I wonder if/how the wildfires will affect the annual raptor migration.

We are getting your smoke up here. The gift that keeps on giving.

With your hotter, dryer than usual summer, are there some water holes you can stake out for birds?

On the first day of September a juvie band-tailed pigeon, most likely from the flock that roosts nearby in a neighbor's tree, was looking for seeds beneath my seed feeders.

That is an osprey. They won't be around too much longer as they begin their fall migration to Central and South America.

One of the Blues Brothers visited the back yard.

Three hummers have been fighting over territorial rights to our backyards. The skirmishes start early in the morning when one perches on a tree two doors down and the others attack. They are finished around 9:30am.
Here is the view from my back deck.
I tried to capture the action with my...

As I said earlier, both the male and female hairy woodpeckers were in the backyard Friday morning (8-21-2020). The female is on the left habitat stump and the male is on the right one.

This morning both the male and female are pounding on my nature stumps. I'll post photos later today.

Thursday morning (8-20-2020) I heard a bird call that I could not ID but sounded familiar. It turned out to be that of a female hairy woodpecker. She could be one of the pair that nests in nearby Pine Ridge Park.

I was about to hang it up for the afternoon when a flock of bushtits flew in and briefly occupied the suet feeder.
