6/21/2025 Loop Road and Laurel Canyon
Sun! I had quite a lovely few hours along Loop Road and up Laurel Canyon as far as the foot of the steep bit. A surprise to me was that there was still activity at the Red-breasted Nuthatch nest. I found it ten days ago and thought at the time that I saw a well-grown chick at the entrance, a chick that I would expect to be fledged by now, but perhaps what I saw was an adult feeding their mate, so the chicks could have been very young then. I also watched a family of Wrentits acting much like the ones on Inspiration Trail. Neither time did I hear anything that sounded like juvenile begging, just saw them chasing parents and fluttering. So many begging juveniles are quite noisy. ( The list: )
On the way back I walked down to the bench at the top of the Little Farm hoping to see swallows. No swallows, just Wild Turkeys. Couldn't even find a Black Phoebe, which was a disappointment.
