Today's walk report: 110418

Lizard's regret.

Hopefully we're finishing up the really, for sure, last and final heat wave of the year here in SoCal. We've had temps up to 94º over the past few days and it has gotten pretty tiring.

Meanwhile, pictures from today...

This little fellow came right up, knowing Docken had bird food.

This is the same Calypte anna's hummingbird in other recent walk reports. He's just looking a lot more mature now.

A Northern flicker woodpecker who was quite evasive.

 Here are a couple of reminders to vote democrat.

 and one more.

Docken spotted this fellow. We haven't seen an egret for some time now. He was stalking lizards and he got one.

In a flash, he's got it. (Click the image so you can see better).
 

Here's the tail end of the story.

I'll leave you with a sunset from last night. We drove for this one.
