Characters and Traits

I made a quick walk around Berkeley. The interesting thing about Berkeley, is that a lot of the landscape stays the same through out. I am noticing a lack of variety about what is offered. I thought spring would offer more, however the landscape has turned to be bland in reality.

I came across a bird that i have never seen before. I was take aback by this bird because I have not seen its kind around Berkeley before. Unsure of what to name the species, I continued to try and capture the moment with this bird. The traits of this bird were a dark brown with a reddish undertone. Very welcoming to my presence. The bird was also respondent to my voice and whistle. I was curious to the hearing capabilities of this bird. An ID would be greatly appreciated.
Next was a flower with Ivy. It had a blue undertone to it that initially sparked my curiosity. The flower erected out and was thriving against the IVY. It smelled fresh and like spring rain. The "leaves" were soft felt, I was curious about this plant also. It was a lively plant, that carried a lot of character, smell and a sense of place with distinction.
