      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 ... 😊

                        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.

                            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.
