My native Sacred Datura is making a comeback. This nighttime pollinating perennial has a long & fascinating indigenous history.

Apologies for the worst pictures ever… they are too fast! The Kings County skies are suddenly FULL of migrant Cliff Swallows arriving all the way from South America! Flying up to 35mph, catching up to 2,000 insects each a day!

I repurposed a mass produced bird house that wasn’t quite right for my local birds and turned it into a mason bee house. Oh, and that's my new friend Gary The Gray Wall Jumping Spider. He kept me company while I built it.

Off the Garden Path: Lucky enough to have been in close company of this Raven at Millerton Lake. I have a deep fascination and appreciation for Corvids. He was looking at me as curiously as I was at him.

Most people spend the majority of their life sleeping. I’m pretty sure I spend the majority of my life making nectar and cleaning hummingbird feeders. 😅
Dr. JB’s Feeders are my absolutely favorite.

It's looking to be a great avocado harvest year! The dense evergreen foliage is a favorite for birds in my garden for protection, shade, and nesting and the provide early season pollen for the bees. #WildlifeGarden #PollinatorGarden #Birding #BirdFriendlyGarden

The "Bug Barn" is eagerly awaiting new tenants. Adding one to your yard is an easy way to support the quiet workers that keep a garden healthy all year.

The magpies seem to like the mud I put out for them to use instead of the bog area.

The magpies were demolishing the bog area, they use the mud for their nests, so I put down some pebbles and made a plate of mud for them to use, hope the plants will survive now...

A California native Baby Blue Eyes is rising above the competition in the garden. I still have a few holding on in the shade. Thankful for the resilience of natives as I slowly work on eradicating invasive & aggressive plants.

The fearless Western Kingbirds have started arriving - swooping from tree canopies, flashing their yellow bellies as they help reduce the insect population in pure flycatcher fashion.

Next week I'm giving a talk with the #WildlifeGarden Project, on how you can add more habitat complexity to your garden, to encourage and support all sorts of invertebrates!
I'll also get cross about Terrible Bee Hotels.

The magpies are demolishing the bog area, they love using the mud for their nests apparently so probably have to buy new plants later...

My little Tinker Tot eyeballing the bird bath before flying to the pond for a bath instead. I miss her already! I hope she comes back this winter. She was a trip to watch. Such a bold personality... & very seclusive! (Lincoln's Sparrow)

Today’s visitor is a common carder bee, and I managed to catch it with its tongue out while it was working along the flowers.

The Painted Lady Butterfly migration has been outstanding this year! My garden is a full blown kaleidoscope. Lacey Phacelia flowers are native to our region and continue to be the star in the garden.

This indistinguishable track lead me to one of our hedgehog‘hotels’. We thought it wasn’t in use but I could hear it turning itself around inside and he’d left a little “calling card” just outside! Love it!!

Saw a Scrub Jay take a deer mouse today, then stop for a drink before returning to the prey. The sparrows have suddenly gone quiet - classic short-term nesting buffer? Potential hatchlings??

Frogs are back in town.
It might look like a blob of jelly, but inside are hundreds of future froglets getting ready to take on the world.
