I am a nascent gardener, rescuer, and photographer, chronicling the journey of the dogs at Homeward Bound Golden Retriever Rescue and Sanctuary near Sacramento, CA - and the Memorial Garden we have devoted to them.

Our downpours made great homes for all those wonderful, juicy worms! There must be many happy birds around these days. This bird looks like it’s in heaven 🙂 One of the things I like about your nature photos is learning the names of critters I’ve never heard of before. I’ve lived in this area since 1989 and have never heard of a Grackle! What an expressive face in that top photo! I would never dream of taking it’s worm away! 😀

Those really tell the story! Great shots.
Superb!
wow! What great photos!
Fantastic photos as always.
Is that a Raven?
A Grackle.
Lovely shots and what a cute little bird. I love to sit and watch them go about their business 🙂

I don’t recall ever seeing them before, but now they are everywhere. Returned with the rain, I guess!
