A couple of pictures I took yesterday.
Northern Mockingbird in a Palm Tree and a Juvenile Northern Cardinal up on the roof:
There have been lots of juvenile/immature birds around lately. Yesterday the little Cardinal in the above photo was on the ground beneath a tree and I thought maybe it had fallen out of a nest because it would flutter a bit and land in another spot on the ground. After a couple of hours it was still beneath a tree in the yard and I walked over and it flew low over to a shrub and then about fifteen minutes later it took wing and landed on the roof, then flew to a nearby tree.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure if the young Brown-headed Cowbird below survived the day. It was sitting in the lawn all day yesterday; I'm not sure if it was a nestling that had been booted from the nest by a sibling or if it fell out of a nest or what but it didn't seem to be able to fly at all; it would run across the lawn when I was out there but I never saw it gain altitude enough to even make it to a shrub much less a tree. Late yesterday afternoon/early evening I looked around and it was gone so hopefully it did finally spread those wings and take off ... sure hope a predator didn't get it.
