I stopped by the Chinden Blvd osprey nest today. One adult flew out of the nest and perched across the street. The other adult flew in and joined them on the perch.

Got a ride up 8th Street extension (aka Sunset Peak Road) and found the owl nest (I think it's a Great Horned Owl, but she kept her back to me) and a Great Blue Heron was in pond below.

Some of tonight's photos of a Great Horned Owl (not the one from last week -- this is a different one, but in the same general area).

Owl photos from last night. The last two are taken at very low light, so they aren't great.

Tahquitz Canyon waterfall, Palm Springs. Fairly easy 2 mile round trip hike, but there are some rock steps that are over a foot high, so you have to do some step-ups. Trekking poles would be handy.
