8226; PALMER LAKE PARK NATURE BLOG •. There is an abundance of wildlife living within urban areas. Respect and protect it by being responsible with your trash. Saturday, January 31, 2015. Finally the End of January! Though I do enjoy getting out and hiking in the Winter, the payoff for the effort isn't quite the same as during other times of the year. So I'm pretty excited to see January out and be one month closer to Spring –ha! Links to this post. Saturday, January 24, 2015. 43º and Sunny and Birdy.

Some Very Good Bird Watching. After quite some time and a lot of attempts I was able to catch a couple of good ones. I like this one as is shows a hint of the "Ruby crown" for which they are named. A little further along the wood chip trail now on the south side of the park I was rewarded with the most close views...Had o...

Last night a friend who also hikes around Palmer Lake Park contacted me to let me know that she'd again spotted a very unusual bird for the park –an Eastern Meadowlark! Well that's the same question I've pondered over since my friend first spotted one at the park last year! After watching the bird for well over 90 minutes...

In doing so, I was able to learn to identify things by studying them later, comparing to other images and asking others for assistance. Which is not something you can really do in the field. And when it comes to birds, well, birds don't just sit still and wait for you to get a good look at them! And no longer did "auto"...

Sure enough it had a nest here and was busy feeding it's young. First the male landed with a mouthful of food and slipped inside the hole. When he came back out, I could plainly hear the loud squealing of little ones inside the tree. You've gotta appreciate birds sometimes simply for the fact that they can construct intricate...

Since the males have a completely black head and black eye, it is somewhat rare to even be able to see their eyes. So this is one shot in my book that makes the cut! The odd position I found them in leads me to believe they were possibly mating. Links to this post. Saturday, June 21, 2014. It was mostly dark and with green...

I'm still trying for better photos of House Finch as they can be a very pretty bird. But with the light being what it is lately I'm lucky if any of the male's violet-red color shows up at all. I was happy though to get photos of both the male and female House Finch today. Links to this post. Sunday, November 23, 2014.

To everyones surprise, the Deer clearly didn't want to go back into the woods and nervously let the bikers cross within just feet of it! The Deer kind of cautiously watched and waited while waving it's tail which made me laugh. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Click here for maps of the area! MILES WALKED AT PLP: 1,607.
