I'm no entomologist, but I think that is a mosquito larva in the bill of this song #sparrow. On top of being cute, birds help control the mosquito population. Taken May 2025 in #RohnertPark, #California on the #SSU campus.

So happy to see this special song #sparrow again. I first met it last year, foraging at the creek behind #SonomaStateUniversity. It looks like it is thriving on just one leg. Taken May 2025 in #RohnertPark, #California.

This special song sparrow gets by on one leg. I saw it last year, and I'm glad it has survived and thrived for another year.

On this International Holocaust Remembrance Day, I visited #SonomaStateUniversity and its Holocaust Memorial Garden. Here’s the now-grown sapling from Anne Frank’s beloved Chestnut tree.

Time for us all to reach out to the CSU Board of Trustees. Talking points: The public has lost faith in Garcia and Cutrer. We need new leadership that understands the value of higher education to CA. The CSU must make the case to the legislature for full funding.
