Battiste's Bird Garden

I stayed on this property, so birded it often -- I've combined them all into one post. This property is fairly level and walkable. Don't think a wheelchair would do well. There are plenty of places to sit and watch.

This is the Garden

The first afternoon/evening --

Anna's Hummingbird

Broad-tailed Hummingbird

Lucifer Hummingbird

Lesser Goldfinch with Bee

Elf Owl

also had a Western Screech-Owl land in the Garden.

Had sessions in the Garden in the morning and afternoon the next day...

A great variety of Hummingbirds
