Daily Postcard: Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
Daily Postcard: The view very early this morning of the full ‘beaver moon’ illuminating tree branches at a residence in White Rock.

Male Spotted Towhee Visits Residence On Barranca Mesa
A male spotted towhee visits the backyard of a residence Monday on Barranca Mesa. The spotted towhee is seen here with the smaller Oregon Junco.Spotted Towhees hop over the ground beneath dense tangles of shrubs, scratching in leaf litter for food. They also climb into lower branches to search for insects and fruits, or to deliver their quick, buzzy song.

They hop around the bases of trees and shrubs in forests or venture out onto lawns looking for fallen seeds. Source: Read More

Raven Building Nest And Lifting Spirits All Over Los Alamos

A raven is busy gathering twigs from a Pinon Tree recently behind a residence on Barranca Mesa and building its nest across the canyon, as it lifts spirits all over Los Alamos. Ravens are among the smartest of all birds, gaining a reputation for solving ever more complicated problems invented by ever more creative scientists. Ravens are acrobatic fliers, often doing rolls and somersaults in the air. One bird was seen flying upside down for more than a half-mile. Young birds are fond of playing games with sticks, dropping them and diving to catch them in midair. Source: allaboutbird.org. Photo Read More
