Don't often see Kestrels, let alone a photo opportunity. Actually shot this male from the car.

An evening with the roadrunners. Previously, I only had pics from further away. This was a real opportunity, from as close as 10 feet.

I thought I would fill the blank in this category.
A roadrunner on the run!
In the countryside you couldn't get within 40m of a roadrunner, but in town next to the arroyas they seemed more used to the presence of people. They were a trio, so they were further distracted by other interests.

This spring there were a few pairs of Bitterns calling in the swamps. We saw them more than ever, but few decent photo ops. This one was on a mound pumping himself up and calling.

This spring the Winter Wren reappeared at the same locale as last year. I managed some pics in the gloom. It was a little far for flash.
I like the Fench name "Forest Wren", very fitting.

While waiting for the Towhee, the Goldfinch showed up. Snapped a few pics, as they are always a little difficult.

The hotel had a chairlift to the top of a hill. At the base there were a number of hummingbird feeders, where this photo was taken.
I am not certain about the ID, could use help.

I first saw him from a distance on the path, as the racquet tip of his tail was not evident, I wasn't sure what he was. With my slow approach he flew of into the shrubs on the side of the path. That was when I knew I had a Motmot. It took some persistence to get clear shots. Luckily, for some reason Motmots don't scare easily.
