Chicken (male-Rooster)

If you walk around the neighborhood in the morning, you could hear this guy going off like an unwanted alarm clock. 

image704

Heron-Great Blue

An elegant bird, like a streamline arrow floating across the sky.  The great blue heron is a large wading bird, common near the shores of open water and in wetlands over most of North America and Central America, 

image705

Hummingbird-Anna's (female)

These are the aerial acrobats that fly gracefully at top speed in any direction, turning on a dime. Also, we’ve discovered that hummingbirds don’t hum, but rather make a clicking noise, though if you’re close enough, you can sometimes hear a low thrumming sound because they beat their wings so fast.  

image706

Owl-Western Screech

Hard to find in daytime, you  may hear their late-night hooting sound that accelerates in tempo like the sound of a bouncing ball. 

image707

Pigeon-Rock

Very common bird to our area.  If you see a little band on its leg, it could be a lost racing pigeon.  There is a very large group of racing pigeon enthusiasts in Sacramento County.

Starling-European

This is not a blackbird, but when spotted up close, you’ll see a polka dotted array of glistening dark green, purple, brown, and black.   

image709

Woodpecker-Acorn

 This small woodpecker gets lots of style points for its black and white coat and bright red top hat
