same individual as yesterday (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/193347588), still uncertain!

@jeffgoddard what do you think about this individual?

One hole of several clusters dug into silt/sand on Marsh Trail, hole diameter about 5 mm.

@anudibranchmom no clue!

moved like a nudibranch in my opinion, could have sworn i saw gills while photographing but they could've retracted.

pretty small, disappeared into the algae

1cm long

Found on desert broom (Baccharis sarothroides) with abdomen slowly bobbing up & down and a line of silk attached.

The photo was taken by Lisa Hatfield. Lizard survived the encounter with the young cat and was released nearby. Though it may have been injured during the encounter, and during subsequent removal.

Courtship on garden hose.

Little moustached guy showed up in my woodshop.

A second adult was within close proximity. First sighting of the year, probably active due to a week of above avg temps.

Babies have hatched!

I've seen this one a couple of times at dawn and dusk, and there's often scat around in the morning, but I've never seen this one in broad daylight! Dirty nose, really digging around for something.

was tending to chicks
