City wildlife – against the odds

Tags: quail camera

I live in a fairly large city in the middle of a desert.  A person might think there wouldn’t be many animals around, right?

Right?

Think again…

I hear owls, coyotes, coy-wolves, mockingbirds, grackles.  I see hummingbirds, hawks, pigeons, falcons, doves, Quail, lizards of several kinds, butterflies, rabbits, and many other things.

Here are pictures of some of them.  Apologies if the quality is poor but many of these are done at extreme zoom using a Nikon Coolpix 8300.  A fun Camera but without many of the fancy features other cameras have!

Quail in my parking lot
Hawk on the power pole
Dove in the olive tree
Male grackle, grackling up a storm
Dried cicada at the end of the season
Big lizard on the acacia
