Michael PoundsThe hummingbirds have been visiting our feeder frequently.

Norcal Gma 2Summer and I helped her pal get all showered up, pedicured, and helped with the cream prescribed for his skin. It takes a village. Well maybe just a grandma and a dog who isn't allowed to lick in the presence of medicine. She is good about leaving the strong smelling stuff alone. Afterwards we went outside to comune with nature. A covey of quail were just over the fence. Summer and I watched to see how they would react to my pitifully inadequate quail call. I tried. They listened and wondered where the sick quail was. We are easily amused so are the quail. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BackyardBirds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BackyardBirds</a>

Lisa MiguezI just uploaded a new YouTube shorts video of our local matriarch Swainson's hawk flying around. I was quite far away from her so the video isn't very clear. I also had to do some creative 'realigning' of the clips to make it a bit more watchable.
