Description

This beautiful buckeye wouldn't hold still. Would land along a muddy patch in an outlet channel long enough for me to get my camera on him, then take off before I could bet a shot and land low several feet away. Again and again. Chased another Buckeye, then landed on low weeds again.

Description

Looked like this pair of orioles were still going in and out of this nest in this palm tree. Seems a bit late, but maybe they're raising a second set this season. Didn't hear any baby birds in the nest -- maybe just eggs right now?

Not that sure about this one. Doesn't look like much of a perennial like O. californica is supposed to be. Maybe O. deltoides with lobed leaves? I've never seen that before though.
