These birds make mud nests on the bridges over the stream.
They are used to kill insects, they mob predators, info on these birds is interesting.
??? species
Skimmer (Rynchopidae)??? These birds are very fast, fly in flocks, skim the water (for insects)? and dive into water for insects then taking off from water.
There are surprisingly few birds that skim, making this species relatively easy to identify
This is either a skimmer, Stercorariidae, Skua, Jaeger, or tern
This bird has a small part of red under the head on the top of the chest.
Purple Finch (male)
Carpodacus purpureus
or this could be a house finch
Carpodacus mexicanus
One of a variety of "perching birds"
finches are also catagorized as "song birds"
females construct the nests
