Watchful Ravens challenge an intruder, circling overhead, cawiing loudly -- from sighting him stretched out on the road with a camera, to when he finally exited at Escobar Gate. Were they guarding the body of the King Snake, an attractive source of meat? Or were they reacting to the novelty of someone rising from a sprawl?
Here are a few more record shots, birds seen out of Escobar Gate with the birders on 6/7, and leading a tour on 6/10. As well as some Veromessor andrei swarming in an unusual piece of fluff; and an ant-like insect (?), waiting for your ID.
Bonus: dueling Juncos seen just outside Escobar Gate, and cute parent and chick, also waiting for an ID.
