Due to its status as a threatened species, geotag is withheld. That being said, if you can ID this plant in the field, you will find them abundant (putting it lightly) in proper habitat within the park.

This looks like examples on MPG which are labeled as unidientified Scythrididae.

On BG, they term these, "possibly Landryia sp."

These were nectaring on the flowers of Senecio flaccidus.

Un macho que acaba de eclosionar en mi jardín. Su coloración y marcas son muy extrañas. Las alas de abajo no funcionan y no puede volar.

Frick Has A Girlfriend!!!
Introducing Frick & Frack!
Frick called her in early this morning. She is larger & her voice is the higher pitched one. With all that canoodling going on, they are already a couple apparently. She stayed about 3 minutes then left around 5:00 this morning. Frick was in and out of the house overnight and he last left around 6:45 am. No one stayed inside for the day. My fingers are crossed he can convince her this is the place to raise babies.

Kyyhkyhaukka (Accipiter cooperii)Havainnoija
mcraubetKuvaus
Vigorous fight between hawk & crow. First the hawk had the upper hand, then the crow. The hawk eventually escaped under a fence. I am guessing sharp-shinned because of Sibley description of breast streaks as "coarse brown" rather than "thin dark" for Cooper's. Also the hawk is smaller than the crow (while a Cooper's is supposed to be about crow-sized), and its head looks rounded (more like SS).
