TODAY’S LOCAL NATURE BRIEFING
Rock pigeons are feeding and courting around buildings and bridges now. Iridescent neck feathers flash green and purple in direct sun.
Pears are active nearby. Look for them in old orchards, yards, and feral roadside trees.
Large-eared deer graze meadow margins, trails, and foothill slopes at dusk. Look for white rump patches and black-tipped tails.
