The wire-tailed swallow is a small swallow, measuring 18 cm (7.1 in) in length. It has bright blue upperparts, bright white underparts and a chestnut cap. Immature birds lack tail wires and have dull brown (rather than chestnut) caps. The species is named for the very long filamentous outermost tail feathers, which trail behind like two wires. The sexes are similar in appearance, but the female has shorter "wires". Juveniles have a brown crown, back and tail.

24 was a whirlwind of change.
25 is quickly slipping away, but I'm clinging on to it with every ounce of my strength. Here's my self portrait for my birthday. I'm a bit late in posting (by a few months). Thanks for your help with these, Cameron. This setup was a backup to another idea that I ended up discarding. Maybe 25 is about preparing safety nets and moving forward after failure.
Check out my other birthday self portraits:

Last year, I had an opportunity to visit the east side of Brushy Peak which is off limit to the public. As a matter of fact, I had to take a ranger 's guided tour offered by Livermore Park and Recreation to get here. This particular outcropping is called "Post Office Rock". Back in the early 20th century, members of the Bohemian Club from San Francisco used to gather for picnic here. But going back even further before the Spanish came, Brushy Peak was once the center of the trading routes among the Native tribes in Northern California.
