Red Winged Black Birds

Pretty Birds

I need more zoom. I had trouble getting close to these birds. I stood in a place with several birds around these bushes and this one electric pole. This one bird was harassing the other males and would fly down to buzz them. He would then fly back up to the top of the electric pole.

Scrub Jays

California Jays

They are very pretty birds, but this one would not allow me to be real close. I guess I'm going to have to get a better camera and a long distance lens if I'm to continue birding.

Crows

The Ravens Little Brother

These are such smart little brothers of the Raven. A friend of ours who use to live here in California had a pet crow. She said, it was the smartest bird she had ever been around.

Palms and Cactus

The Cactus is blooming in the desert at the Oasis of 29 Palms. I wonder what it looked like when it was a spring in the middle of the desert 200 years ago.
