Back on the Crooked River again this week. Fishing is getting good and the weather is perfect for a day of sitting along the stream.

In June the kestrals show up and we may have discovered a nest site,
Though it’s on the back side of an old snag . . . on the opposite side of the river . . . making it difficult to confirm.

There was a lizard exchange that first drew our attention to the fact that this pair of kestrels might not be just using the tree as a feeding station.

Next time we visit, I’ll wade the stream and get a better angle.
For now, we will be content with images of summer blooms, a young flicker and mourning dove also enjoying the water.
Of course, there are some pix of fishing and Tip keeping watch.
