Bats at Yolo Bypass and a very very very fast visitor .. #NikonD500, #Bats #YoloBypass #PeregrineFalcon
Went out to see the bats ofYolo Bypass tonight and was not disappointed. Got to the entrance around 7:45 and since this was 45 minutes before sunset and the bats were supposed to come out around sunset I went into the park for a few minutes to tool around.Got a few pics of flowers, birds and SacramentoAnd then headed back out b/c they lock the gate at sunset. I parked on the levee outside the gate and got out my camera gear and set up awaiting the bats. The bats came out just after the sun went down. A person there said that yesterday they came out 10 minutes before sunset.And they streamed out ... and it was awesome ...

Early AM at #YoloBypass and a brief encounter with a bald eagle #Birds #BirdPhotography
So yesterday I went out early in the morning toYolo Bypass Wildife Area. I had not been in a few weeks and wanted to get out for a hike and some birding.Thankfully, even though it was really early (like 6:30 AM) my wife had already prepared coffee for the two of us since she had been woken by the strange yowling beast that lives in our house.So I packed up some gear, put on long pants and boots and a long sleeve shirt (mostly to deal with the brambles in my favorite hiking spot) and headed out in my car (I note - I would love to bike there and then bike through Yolo Bypass but bikes are not allowed - so the car is the only...

My observations for the City Nature Challenge 2019 - Sacramento #iNaturalist
So - last week I participated in the City Nature Challenge 2019 Sacramento Area effort. See https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/city-nature-challenge-2019-sacramento-region for more details on the challenge.My colleague Laci Gerhart-Barley was one of the co-organizers for our region and I saw some posts from her in the run up to the event and, as I have gotten more and more into iNaturalist I decided to participate. Fortunately in a way, I got a nasty bug with fever and chills and such and this meant (1) I did not want to go to work and (2) I wanted to avoid people. This gave me some extra time to go a...

Playing with iNaturalist Places ..
So - have been experimenting a bit with iNaturalist. Just testing some embedding here. This embed is for a "place" where I do a lot of birding - the rural areas between Davis and Woodland. I love that with iNaturalist I can outline my own places on maps so am going to see how this goes. It should show observations from this area ...The place is:https://www.inaturalist.org/places/rural-areas-between-davis-and-woodland

Blog post w/ Twitter thread about Twitter threads & blog posts & how to turn a Twitter thread into a blog post
So I am writing a blog post here where I have captured a Twitter thread about blog posts and Twitter threads. I saw a Tweet from Pat Schloss and responded to it:So@PatSchloss had a Tweet a few minutes ago about a comment he got suggesting Twitter threads are more effective than blog posts and I thought I would comment about this in a thread 1/nhttps://t.co/WxHXyFTZOS— Jonathan Eisen (@phylogenomics)March 23, 2019 But that was not the only Tweet I made about this.
