San Pedro House - March 31, 2025

For a change of pace, I went to San Pedro House on the east side of town. I can usually count on a different variety of birds here, although it's a little tougher to get good photographs. That's because the only perches, besides feeders, are the trees that provide good hiding places. Good for the birds, not so much for the photographers. There were a million birds flying around and hopping all over the ground. Unfortunately, I estimate that 999,950 of them were White-crowned Sparrows. There were some good opportunities with female Red-winged Blackbirds and a few other species I don't see that often. Some of them just didn't work out as the birds stayed in the shadows.
