10,000 Birds

AUGUST 26, 2015

You can see some of my older Lassen Park posts featuring several other species from this beautiful park here. This week I am reporting on the Cassin’s Finch ( Haemorhous cassinii ), another western species found nesting in Lassen Volcanic National Park. This is the male of the species (click on photos for full sized images).

Firstly, if you check the wonderful photo galleries here at 10000 Birds, you will find some excellent shots of the female Mountain Bluebird that Corey took in New York, of all places! Click on photos for full sized images. Last June I found adult Nutcrackers feeding young at this location. You can download their bird list here.

10,000 Birds

JULY 4, 2012

Well, it is nesting season and being a nest box monitor with three Bluebird Trails, I thought I should rectify the blatant lack of coverage on 10000 Birds of one of the most iconic North American birds of our time. This is the male Western Bluebird checking out a natural cavity in a large oak tree (click on photos for full sized images).
