Faunascrolling--what's visiting where you are?

They also like the seeds of the yellow ligularia 'Rocket'. It's hysterical when they land on the long stalk and it bends over from their weight.

My neighbor is feeding them thistle; they come to my yard for a sip of water.

The birds were not eating much with the cicadas here. Now that they are fading, they're chowing down at the feeders.

Mama bear and two cubs.

I don’t have bears yet, but they’ve been seen in the county. We have coyotes, but it seems they aren’t true coyotes, but a cross between coyotes and wolves - coy wolves. It makes sense because they are bigger that western coyotes. I see them trotting down the walking trails sometimes.

Fledgling birds and their mamas here. Watching a mom robin carefully monitor her fledgling. Also this morning we saw three sibling bluejays running and flying around together figuring out how to get to the feeders.

We went for a hike on the West Circle trail in the Hyde Memorial State Park a couple of miles north of our house in Santa Fe. Back at the ranger station, a group of Flycatchers were doing their thing. At first they were a bit stand-offish, but as they got used to me they came closer. That, plus a 300mm telephoto ...

Nice photo

[Piano*Dad]

Yeah, well, I took another 20 that weren't so good ...

[rustyfingers]

Sounds about right. Nice shot

British Goldfinch. They're always twittering overhead, today one landed on our aerial long enough for a snap

[Mik]

Looked them up... beautiful! The North American ones I have look like this.

What does your aerial do? Doesn’t look like the ones for TV to me. FM?

It gets terrestrial/freeview TV.
I ended our Sky satellite sub so we're using the old aerials plus free digital channels through the sky broadband.
We have two...

Trained onto local transmitters

I love the sound of the Wood Thrush in the grove behind our house ...

That is so very like our Song Thrush which perches top of a tree to sing

This little guy has made a little hollow under my red twig dogwood. He likes snipping off the stems of plants and leaving them without eating them. So, you know, basically an a$$hole. Good thing he's cute.

We have lots of bunnies roaming through the neighborhood, and the back yard. I’ve named them all Mr. Bun. Doesn’t matter if it’s male or female; I can’t tell. Hello Mr. Bun!

[wtg]

Do I count as fauna?

[Mik]

There's a good joke there somewhere but I'll be damned if I can find it.
