Disturbing photo for some, but I've never seen Yellowjackets feeding on a dead animal before. I assume maybe they were simply drinking the fluids?

I'll admit it, I'm using the grass as an excuse to post an aurora borealis shot - but what a view! Only the second time in my life I've witnessed it - and the first time was also in California.

Lady Owl is back!!! After last year's storm drama, which broke most of their Oak, and caused them to abandon the nest, we weren't sure whether they'd return. Same nesting box, same tree, now just a lot less of it.
I still haven't heard or seen her mate yet, am guessing he must be around if she's started nesting. Hoping for several healthy owlets!

I have no idea what this is. This observation is for the larger oblong one in the center, in case it is different than the smaller globes (which I posted separately). The larger one is probably 1 cm or less in length.(a guess, I had no scale available). Found in an alkaline vernal pool (playa pool), along with many different small insects and crustaceans. The water is diluted here, the source water is very cloudy with suspended clay particles, almost the color of a latte. Rough photo, I'm holding a container in one hand and the camera in the other.
