What a fauna kinda day!! The same day I decided not to bring my camera . . .  and the zoom on the phone just couldn't capture all the wildlife.

We saw an egret, heron, coyote, bunnies, crows, eagle(?), hawk, deer, quail, and a raccoon!


Smoky skies from the County Fire in Yolo County.


 Hmmm . . .

 Second bird box found on the ground - what's going on?

 Look left - smoky skies.

 Look right - beautiful blue skies.




 What came first? The critter hole or the horse bun?


 Fog against the smoky skies.












 The spillway - killer climb.

 Looks like the State of California.


Peek-a-boo! Rocky Raccoon!
