Feeding flying gulls and blackbirds at the park in slow motion
Brian and I went to the park to feed California Gulls and Red-winged Blackbirds so I could record them flying and eating in slow motion. It looks awesome. Check it out!

About those bird names…
The people that come up with bird names are weird.

The Great Backyard Bird Count is near!
Get a comfy chair and get ready to count feathered critters that visit your backyard from February 14-17th!
Starting Friday, everyone is encouraged to top off their bird feeders with delicious seeds and watch and count the birds that visit for at least 15 minutes. Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and the National Audubon Society wants everyone with a backyard to count birds—for science; Make a list of the species you see and keep a guide nearby to look up any birds you may be unfamiliar with. Also, count how many of each bird species you see.

Sepulveda Basin – Birding Summary
Birds are starting to get more and more colorful as spring gets closer.
I went birding Saturday morning at the Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Reserve in the San Fernando Valley. The bird walk was led by Kris Ohlenkamp, the man who organized and oversaw the Christmas Bird Count for the area.
Our plan was to meet the group there at 8AM to begin, we arrived about five after 8 and as we got out of the car, we realized that when we gathered our things before we left, the camera was left at the house!
