Northern Cardinal.
Been a very busy week or so, so haven’t had a chance to post.
In brief, we flew to Arizona, picked up our trailer, had to rent a tractor to repair road damage thanks to summer rain, and dealt with some mechanical issues. However, on Thanksgiving day we were able to get our feeders back up, and by the next day had lots of birds including this Northern Cardinal! So far we have had 4 new species that we didn’t see here in the Spring! Yesterday we planted most of a new butterfly and hummingbird garden area so that it will be ready for spring. Now on to water features and blinds!
Gray Fox.
We had a new visitor to our bird feeders yesterday, and this one is really exciting! The gray fox is such an elusive desert animal that is usually only active at night. Until this trip, I had only seen one, at sunset in Red Rock Canyon near Vegas. This guy drank from my water drip, ate some bird seeds off the ground, and spent a lot of time watching the nearby birds, but didn’t go after any. Maybe he will grab on of the many squirrels raiding our feeders. 🙂
