I think this is a male Superb Fairy Wren sporting his blue tail. Doesn't have the brown eye lore of the female.
Beak is brownish not black as in typical males
It gets confusing as both male and female can have blue tails with the male a more intense colour than female so I believe
Only males have highly coloured head and upper body

Osprey In the Shade

I spotted this osprey @ Ft De Soto sitting on a very low branch inside a tree yesterday and it let me get very close to it.

Not sure of the ID. I think it's a non-breeding adult, least sandpiper.

Black Skimmers in California, SF bay.
I didn't know they lived there, I thought they were a Florida bird, or lived further south,

Awesome! Happened to me once about a year or so ago as well. Great bit of chance!

This young Great Horned is most likely going to be gone very soon. But for now it can only fly for very short distances
