after 4 p.m.
horse trail along creek (Arden Arcade?)
warm, sunny, clear, windy
lots of crickets (or tree frogs?) singing loudly
Walked until I found this great valley oak that had made itself a clearing in the scrub. Plenty of birds here - magpies, robins, and I startled a small flock of blackbirds at one point -
Jays strafe each other, screeching as they fly by - lots of smaller oaks along the trail, fully leafed out but still a brighter green than they will be later in the season. The crickets are a constant chorus in the background, supported by occasional bird calls.
