Here's a House Sparrow exhibiting the kind of behavior House Sparrows are known for. House Sparrows are somewhat aggressive little (6") beasties. I cannot explain the blue cast to some of the side feathers on this one.
Please come back and visit again. I enjoy returning your visits whenever I can.

Pictures of the Winter in July event at the Phoenix Zoo. This annual event includes snow trucked in for the event, a chilly 'blizzard' every 30 minutes, and snow themed events with the animals. There were four different animal events that featured behavioral enrichment, a process of ensuring captive animals in zoos are treated for psychological and physiological well-being. I will list all the events separately. I learned on their site that they were looking for volunteers. So I was on their website to learn about the event when I learned that they needed volunteers! So I signed up as a photographer and snow shoveler. I was part of a crew of volunteers who broke up the snow so the kids could play with it. It has a hard ice crust the moment we arrived and had to continually work the snow to make it fun to play with. Very glad to spend the day at the Zoo helping them pull off this event. Here are pictures of the behavioral enrichment activities with the squirrel monkeys. This was a great behavioral enrichment program for Winter in July.

The Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students at the Ross School of Business of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (BOMSI2019). The lead faculty were Ryan Buell (Harvard Business School), Stephen Leider (Ross School of Business, University of Michigan), and Jordan Tong (Wisconsin School of Business, University of Wisconsin-Madison). From the website, "The inaugural Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students will be held June 10-14, 2019, at the University of Michigan, Ross School of Business in partnership with the Center for Value Chain Innovation. The conference is co-sponsored by the business schools at the University of Michigan, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Support for this event is also being provided by Harvard Business School's Technology and Operations Management Unit. The 1-week intensive summer institute is designed to provide PhD students who are interested in behavioral research a solid foundation to conduct behavioral operations management research. Additionally, we hope that the summer institute will encourage collaboration and the creation of a research community among the next generation of researchers. Each day of the institute will include morning and afternoon sessions. Morning sessions will provide a general overview of BOM, review core behavioral economics/psychology topics, and discuss OM applications. Afternoon sessions will be focused more on small groups, practicums (e.g., applying ideas to actual research activity), and roundtables (more informal discussions). There will also be free time to prepare for the next day, have office hours, pair up to work on ideas, and hang out!" Pictures from the sessions taken over the week.
In various stages of moving toward alternate or breeding plumage. Surfbirds tend to use rocky shores most of the time locally, but I assume these were stopping on the sandy beach during migration northward. They were actively feeding.
