My last post was all about the shorebirds we saw on our best outing ever but we saw so much more. Here are just a few of the highlights of our day. Enjoy.
An American Crow surveys the shoreline
A Cooper’s Hawk sits upon the treetops with his eye focused on his prey.
A couple of Great Blue Herons preen themselves in the morning fog…
…as one watches the fish jump.
Canada Geese grace the water as the others go about their business.
A Northern Flicker perched himself on an old dead tree…
…as mallards rested on the roof of one of the covered observation deck.
The moon in the afternoon shone over us…
…and my favorite little friend came to say “Hello”.
A Spotted Towhee belted out his song.
Mr and Mrs Mallard soaking up the sun.
A Great Blue Heron stood regally in the bright light.
Cooper’s Hawk looking for lunch.
A large family of Sandhill Cranes..
..and of course mommy and daddy Sandhill Crane and chick who’s not such a baby any longer.
A little lady Wood Duck helps herself to some seed..
..while Red-winged Blackbirds fight over it.
Last but certainly not least, one of my favorites, American Coot.
Great post - some great captures.
