The Big Dead-Fish Clean-Up
A huge thank you to the volunteers who pitched in yesterday to remove all those dead fish from the Celery…
This week's mystery was a toughie. The strangely plumaged bird I photographed with a bunch of House Finches on New Year's Day in DeKorte Park was …. a House Finch.
I know, it had a lot of yellowish orange feathers, but there's an explanation, here.
I wish my photo had been better but the bird could have been more cooperative.
(A thank you to Chris Takacs for pointing out the bird.)
