As I was driving around Carson Lake, I spotted a Loggerhead Shrike giving a solo performance. So I stopped for awhile to watch them sing and snapped a few pictures.

The look that I got! "No photography during the concert!"

Shrike

A small grey and white bird with black wing tips and a long black tail is perched on a bare branch. Its head is turned to look directly into the camera, the black face mask arched lines giving it a fierce look. Small black eyes can be seen amid the black feathers on either side of a closed beak.

Last day of the month so wanted to see if I could add to my bird list for April. I was able to do so with one addition, a willet. Lifer!!

A large brown owl perches in a tree, it's brown patterned body perfect for blending in against the bark of a tree (though not so much against the dull blue grey of early twilight). Though the body is facing away from the camera, showing the large wings and full tail, the head is turned completely around and staring into the camera. It's wide yellow eyes set back in the large oval face with the narrow black beak. The twin feathered "horns" are blowing in the breeze, the only part of the owl that is moving.
A Great Blue Heron appears small as it stands on the top crossbar of a corral entry. The bird's long thin legs are spread wide to support the large grey body. Its long neck is curved into an S with the bright yellow bill pointed off to the left.
A small brown and white speckled bird moves through the shallow water of a flooded grass pasture. Yellow legs come down from a white underbelly. Its wings have dark brown patterns while it's light brown head surrounds a gleaming black eye ringed in white. A long narrow beak extends straight out and glisten in the setting sun light.

I love that the historical buildings in Midtown in Reno are getting some plaques that educate everyone about their history. Some are much older than i expected!

This headline should have read, "Lake Mead vandals caught on video destroying ancient rock formations"

"visitors" is far, far too kind a word for these creeps.

This is too pretty to keep in a reply. Was standing by this lovely pink blossom tree that smelled simply divine and caught movement above me. A male house finch was perched near the top singing. Got a little video and a photo before he flew off.

A red headed house finch perches amid the pink blossoms under a clear blue sky and sings a few notes before flying away.

Driving around Carson yesterday and passed by a group of trees. Just happened to look up and spotted some odd "bark", that moved.

Managed to get the reaction when it was startled by some geese flying by and then caught sight of me pointing a camera at it.

The great horned owl has turned slightly to the right, the sideview of its head now visible, the black line along the edge of the white face surrounds a closed eye. The rest of its body is still turned away, the brown and grey feathers blending in nearly perfectly with the rest of the cottonwood tree bark that fills the background.
The great horned owl spotted the human and whipped it's head around fully, looking down at the visitor. One golden eye is clearly visible while the other is hidden partially by the shadow of a nearby branch. It's pale face is outlined with a black stripe, the two feathery "horns" rising up above it's round head, and the grey and brown back blending into the thick cottonwood tree trunk covered in rough bark.
