Burrowing owl Solano County, CA This particular owl lives at an artificial burrow preserve that I manage. It likes to sit up on this post and watch me work as I weed-eat the enclosure.

Right before @sheaoreilly & I got married, I was looking out our kitchen window and noticed a hummingbird continuously flying in & out of a tree. From there decided to pull my long lens out for a closer look. Turns out that this bird was a mother nesting her eggs! (See a few slides in). Fast forward to a few weeks after we’d gotten back from our mini-moon, I suddenly put two & two together and noticed there was a little fella practicing his flying around the nest! (slide 4). The baby then landed on a roof directly across from us and put his head up to the sky as a sign that he was hungry and we couldn’t believe our eyes. Momma bird came over within a few seconds and fed him right in front of us. Didn’t think I could love hummingbirds anymore, 🤣 but it was one of those really cool rare moments that happens so fast. Beyond stoked to have captured it!

The fastest bird in the world. Peregrine falcon. Willows, California. A success story of the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Populations in the U.S. crashed in the 1950-70 due to DDT pesticides. DDT was banned in 1972 and The ESA passed in 1973, leading to better management and protection. Populations stabilized and this beautiful falcon was delisted in 1999. #peregrine #peregrinefalcon #cdfw #sacnationalwildliferefuge #birdsofinstagram #birds #birdphotography #bird #nature #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #conservationphotography #conservelandprotectwater #canon #canonwildlifephotography #nuts_about_birds #landtrust #aububonsociety #audubonca #cornelllabofornithology
Burrowing owl. Solano County, CA. USA A species of special concern in California. This amazing owl primarily takes refuge in modified ground squirrel burrows. Residential development has greatly reduced their available habitat. Organizations like the one I work for seek to conserve habitat and even construct artificial burrows to support these species. To date our enclosure has been very successful. #burrowingowl #birdsofinstagram #birds #birdphotography #bird #nature #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #conservationphotography #conservelandprotectwater #canon #canonwildlifephotography #nuts_about_birds #nutsaboutwildlife #landtrust #aububonsociety #audubonca #cornelllabofornithology

Cliff swallow. Yolo County, CA These beautiful rust and blue plumaged swallows mold their nests from mud, collected from nearby water sources.

Loggerhead shrike San Joaquin County, CA One of my favorite species with such unique hunting behavior. As previously mentioned, these “butcher birds” impale prey on thorns or barbed wire. If the prey is noxious, shrikes will wait at least three days to ensure the poisons have deteriorated.

Killdeer, Sacramento County, CA. Killdeer lay their eggs in a variety of places including rock gardens and Walmart parking lots. They have one of my favorite predator deterrence tactics. One of the pair pretends to have a broken wing and leads the predator away from the nest with the promise of an easy meal, only to take off in a flash. They’ve used it on me many times! #killdeer #birdsofinstagram #birds #birdphotography #bird #nature #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #conservationphotography #conservelandprotectwater #canon #canonwildlifephotography #nuts_about_birds #landtrust #aububonsociety #audubonca #cornelllabofornithology
