This Steller’s Jay knows a freshly scrubbed bath when she sees it. she bathes in the second video right now. She is just looking it over. this is at the protected bird bath that has the cat proof cage over the top of it. It sits on the ground, surrounded by plants on three side sides. #Birds

If you’ve got a tree that leans… the Smol Opossums out there appreciate when you leave it… in case they need to climb somewhere quick😄

(our apologies, Smol Opossum... for opening the back door after dark)

Bluebird calculating how many of the winter flock can fit in here and the answer is… a whole lotta birds😄

An action shot of grey fox in the garden, not sure if it saw something to pounce on but it's a cool shot.

The gray fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) is thought to be the oldest surviving canid species, having originated at least 3.6 million years ago.

Furnando, the grey fox, getting a good drink before heading home.

Grey foxes, at least here, are very skittish, I don't often get them drinking at the water bowl. I provide clean, fresh water year round but don't feed the wildlife (so many reasons not to feed even though it sounds mean).

Look who was out on the Raccoonobahn possibly hunting squirrels this afternoon!!!!
Grey fox running up and down, squirrels all up in the trees chattering away as were the birds. I slowed the first 30secs or so so we could see him/her better. I went out and saw him in person. 😍

A Varied Tit perches on a branch, gazing down at the photographer with cool disregard—as if mildly amused by the effort below. 😅🪶

Got drenched in a surprise downpour, but this Rustic Bunting made it worth it — even with a twig right across its profile. 😅🪶
結構なずぶ濡れで心折れかけましたがこの子が撮れたのでヨシ!枝被りでもヨシ‼️😹

one of the Flickers today in the backyard. My dogs were inside a lot today-still tired from running around yesterday at a 4 acre sniff spot
The flicker is on the suet feeder that is brown resin two pieces with suet in the middle making a suet sandwich. #Birds

I didn’t get very good photos, but I was happy to see this Golden-crowned sparrow and a western bluebird today. Unfortunately western bluebirds are not as blue as the Eastern ones. #Birds #Nature #Sonoma

happy to see that Ruby Crowned Kinglet is still here even when she doesn’t need a bath (I usually only see her at the wildlife pond). It’s only recently that I started putting cameras at the suet feeders again. #Birds

we get to see about a third of the Bush Tits today, eating from the sandwich feeder which the camera got moved and is only showing the very left side. #Birds

here is immature, white crowned sparrow. I haven’t seen one in a while #Birds
The bird comes to the protective bird bath, and then it goes back from where it came. It doesn’t bathe.

Conservatives believe getting an A for nonsense is a human right but food isn’t.

yesterday one of the young Flickers took at wildlife pond bath in three parts. #Birds

I cropped these a little bit.

“ thats cold. I’m going hop out for a second. “ and then immediately gets out and sits on the log.

darn my cat proof cage! it’s blocking the view of White Crowned Sparrow bath. #Birds
