Western Tanager With A Bug
The tanagers often manipulated their insect prey in their bills for quite a while before gulping it down and I wondered why
Western Tanager On A Rock
Western Tanager On An Old Stump
Green-tailed Towhee In A Flowery Setting
Stretching Broad-tailed Hummingbird

Bathing Cinnamon Teal x Green-winged Teal Hybrid
Yellow-rumped Warbler Singing Amongst The Flowers
Short-eared Owl With Prey In Flight
Singing Horned Lark Perched On A Gnarly Old Stump
