As soon as the rain stopped, the Egrets returned to the lake.

We didn't find the nest of these Pacific wrens, but they mush have fledged that day. the little ones were not good at flying.
Mom kept trying to feed them a spider, but none of them wanted it.

Pacific Wren Fledglings. they have yellow beaks and look grumpy. both are standing on a branch waiting.
a Pacific Wren standing on a vertical branch with the sun just hitting his head. He has a very short vertical tail. I imagine he recently lost feathers there.
Mama Pacific wren tries to feed her chick a spider. but the chick doesn't want it. they are both standing on a small branch. just above the forest floor.

This little bird is the most frequent visitor to my back garden, sometime visits with its parent, sometime not.

From the archives: a cottonwood borer that almost hit me in the head when I was taking pictures of butterflies. Seen once three years ago, and never again.

Sat working at home, when the squawking of Magpie children disputed my train of thought. I looked out the window to see the mother Magpie flying bank and forth from our mealworm feeder delivering lunch to its Juveniles on the fence outside the front of the house.

7 second video starting with view of a deck overlooking grass and green plants. Suddenly a large porcupine enters, rambling through the yard, ambling like it owns the place. It disappears out of sight behind an outside bbq grill.

It's spotted-tailed quoll breeding season. At this time of the year, the females get chonky necks and develop a pouch.

They only live for about three years, so it's good to see from recent trailcam pics that there are more babies on the way.

Photo of a female quoll that's ready to breed. Her pose is similar to the foreground one in the previous photo, but she has a very thick neck and chin.
Night vision (black and white) photo of another female quoll. This one's neck is even chonkier and she has bulges under her belly. This might mean that she's already carrying babies in her pouch.

Photo of two young quolls playing outside a burrow covered in green grass and moss. The quolls are a rich, dark reddish brown with white spots over the body and tail. The one in the foreground is side-on, has one arm in the burrow, is slightly crouched and has its extremely long tail held out and up. Its body is sleek and streamlined. Its sibling is on top of the grassy mound and looking down at the first one.

    Deer Arby's.

    That's it. That's all I've got. There was a deer (aka a Wyoming Lawn Ornament) at the Arby's across the street from our grocery store.

    I hope he stuck to the potato cakes. Everything else there is pretty bad.

    A few images from an awesome week out in Kruger National Park earlier this year. It was a special trip for a number of reasons including the incredible sightings we had, but also because I got to show @geoff_eg and another friend around the bush for the first time!

    I thought all ladybugs had spots, until today when I discovered the existence of the spotless lady beetle.
