One fun thing about Purgatory is that we have a lot of wild birds. And I mean a lot. So far I have seen:
Turkey Vultures
Ravens/Crows
Scrub Jays
Rufous Hummingbirds
California Thrashers
European Starlings (evil birds!)
Robins
Nuthatches
Acorn Woodpeckers
Phoebes
Gold Finches
Red-winged Blackbirds
Red-tailed Hawks
Quail (herds and herds)
Dark-eyed Juncos
Mockingbirds
Magpies
Barn Swallows
Canyon Towhees
Oak Titmice
Plus an assortment of other animals ranging from coyotes and hares, to ground squirrels and the occasional feral cat. Not to mention Barn and Screech Owls.
A while back I started a new Purgatory-related project, one of my other websites, so if you want a dose of nature every couple of days, check it out.
