January 2021 Alamitos Creek Walk |
Section of path along Alamitos Creek. |
Havoc never misses a chance for a splash. |
Tall oaks, willows and sycamore crowd the trail. |
Seed feeder site. Note seeds placed close to cover, suet feeder overhead. |
An immature White-crowned Sparrow hesitant to take advantage of the seeds. |
Stayed within the tangle of branches. |
Hanging suet feeder attracts a hungry Chestnut-backed Chickadee. |
A pair of them take turns pecking at the suet. |
A single Scrub Jay was the third bird seen. Two crows nearby could have intimidated him. |
Leaving the dirt path to join the asphalt trail. |
Watched 3 sets of Mallard pairs swim upstream. |
Anothr dog owner restrains a "Chessy" Retriever straining to reach Havoc. |
Water District's embankment above creek. Good place for wildlife viewing. |
Landscape remains very dry, dull for photography. |
