On the way to work I stopped at Chavez Ravine, down the road from Dodger Stadium (Goodbye Frank; don't let the door slap you on the ass).
As you are leaving the parking lot, there is a traffic circle that is designed to help cars do a U-turn. In the middle of this traffic circle there is a set of bushes that is very attractive to birds. Multiple species of woodpeckers, sparrows, and warblers constantly flew in and out of these bushes.
On the way home, I stopped at Legg Lake, where I saw a male Wood Duck who was too far away to photograph, but missed the Tropical Kingbird, the male Eurasian Wigeon, the B&W Warbler, and of course, the D .B.Cooper of Icterids, the Rusty Blackbird.
I stepped in a lot of goose poop while searching among all of the Tricolored Blackbirds, Brewer's Blackbirds, and Great-tailed Grackles for that dang Rusty Blackbird—all to no avail.
