Danielle's Pictures

My newly made friend, Danielle, took some great pics of our project while we worked together in Hermiston. I promised you guys I would share them with you, or at least a decent amount of them.These are all from my first week in Hermiston, so around April 25 or so. Please enjoy :)

 Danielle....if you look closely, she got pooped on from this one. 

 We found a lone cold egg. 

 Pronghorn...aka...antelope

 Box trap

 Showing the brood patch on a female...its funny because it makes her look "pregnant"

 I'm in love!

 A picture of a picture. :-)

 Red tail Hawk

 burrow maintenance

 This is all "decoration", yes that includes the coyote scat...apparently this impresses the female...poop impresses the female...lol

 Me pushing the "plunger" in, and DJ reaching into the nest chamber. 

 Taking her home

 "Back to the Burrow"

 I'm ready for my close up

 Precious, just precious

 Taking it out of the trap

 Love that this one has it's tongue sticking out. 

 This girl was feisty and bit DJ

 hmm...she caught me! I think this was me taking a picture of owls inside the trap. 

 I don't remember what was funny, but ended up being a good pic. 

 Long-billed Curlew.....these birds are rare! 

California Quail.....first of all..they are beautiful birds, second, they make cute noises.
