Aha, this little guy is a feisty one indeed. His proper common name is Clark's Nutcracker, but deary me he is well known to many as the Camp Robber. He gains that nickname honestly. This last summer one swiped a strip of bacon from our campground table and took off with it, and I have reason to believe that they are also fond of grapes. I know from experience and lost grapes. Even in the winter they hang about to see what they can get their beaks on.
The California Calico --hey, a double C--ranges obviously beyond California.
This chipmunk stopped to enjoy a snack that was not actually provided by campers. At camp, his cousins were found gazing hungrily at our jar of trail mix, trying to figure out its method of entry.

Clever all those C's!
Nice photos. I like the one with the little cute bird:)
You definately have some great C shots! I like the flowers but the chipmunk is very cute too.
I love all your C's. The bird resembles a Chickadee. Funny, he's a thief, eh? The top flower is so interesting. I want some.
Great Collection! Your Californian Calico looks very like our Tortoiseshell.
Very impressive collection of C's. I like your commentary on the Nuthatch. I thought of Blue Jays as being robbers but not these little guys.
These are all GREAT photos for C. Love them! I especially love the Cliff Paintbrush. Imagine plants being able to thrive in such a habitat!
A great collection of 'c'!
delightful! I always like seeing the flora of other countries... I wonder if cinquefoil is related to the buttercup? It is a plant that is often heard of in folk lore.
I hope you didn't nearly fall over the Cliff to get that specatcular first photo!
What a beautiful photos:)
Have a nice evening:)
