Cough Cough Bird

I hate to even bring it up again, but I have caught another cold.  I guess if you leave the real world for months at a time, as I am prone to do, fate will eff you to make up for all the lost time.  And so you get sick twice during your first month back home.  Life is pain.  I find Halls cough drops to be the most effective treatment.  I'm pretty sure they're the best cough drop.  And they taste pretty good too.  I worked out in the desert again today.  Saw some more great stuff.  Nothing much new though, except for the quiz bird below.


Quiz bird.

Loggerhead Shrike, hella close.

To-Do List Day

I gots a ton of stuff to do today.  So much Business to TCO.  Yesterday was cool.  I birded my persy fave Calaveras birding spot, Salt Springs Valley.  Didn't have a lot, but I did see Ferruginous Hawk, Loggerhead Shrike, Lewis's Woodpecker, and Mountain Bluebird (My first for Calaveras County).  Now I've got to go hit the DMV.  Should be epic.  




This Shrike was nice enough to give me a nice close-up.



Ferruginous Hawk.  Screaming at me.
