“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

It’s getting colder here in the Sierra foothills and my feeders are getting plenty of action. I get a kick out of the antics of scrub jays and acorn woodpeckers. Both use my hulled peanut feeder, and both try to beat each other to the chow. The woodpeckers take one nut at a time to poke into an oak tree. The jays cram as many as they can get into their craw before flying off. The towhees are back, as are juncos, crowned sparrows and chickadees. I have the same finch populations year-round. I even saw a lazuli bunting the other day, rare around here. The Anna’s hummingbirds stay through the winter, so I have to be sure to keep nectar for them now that the plants are not supplying much. If my flocks keep getting bigger, I may have to start asking for donations myself! Gotta love ’em.
I saw a few Juncos yesterday in the barn, a sign that winter is close at hand for us. Chickadees are not shy and I have seen them eating walnuts out of peoples hands.
I love these pictures! Thank you.
The little fellows are looking well fed and sassy. I hope that they do well in the coming winter.
We have a Great Blue Heron that frequents a pond near here. Many tasty fish to spear and feast upon.
Poor thing looked wet and cold today. Very rainy and windy. He simply stood by the path and would not budge as we walked by. Gave us a look of resignation. Usually he takes off and flies to the other side of the pond. Winds were gusting to almost fifty here in Charlotte, and I guess a heron is not a fan of fast moving air. The ducks on the other hand are flying around like rockets.
PatrickV: We had here a Blue Heron which systematically ate the Sabine Fish from Sabine Pond.
