I have really been missing time with my friend Kim and the time would would spend at Reifel so when I flew back to B.C. for a visit, I made sure a date was set to get together and go.
The weather was perfect and the birds were waiting. Here’s just a few of our feathered friends we had the pleasure to observe.
A handsome Sandhill Crane
Momma Sandhill keeping her eggs warm
A sweet little Tree Swallow
A pair of Canada Geese
Rufous Hummingbird
Momma mallard and two of her ducklings
A very vocal Marsh Wren
A pair of goslings
Great Blue Heron
Brown-headed Cowbird
A couple of Barn Swallows
And no trip to Reifel is complete with out saying hello to a handsome Wood Duck
So glad you and Kim had a great time and fun!
ReplyDeleteHappy that the two of you got together! Great bird photos!
ReplyDeletea great day of Birding, Robbie!..you haven't lost your touch!
ReplyDeleteA lovely birding day with a wonderful friend! Happy that the two of you were able to spend time together. :-)
ReplyDeleteRobbie, wonderful shots! Reifel is such a wonderful place. I was there on a school field trip around the time you were there. I hadn't been for a couple of months, shame shame! I got some good shots too! Hard to get much when chaperoning 20 8 year olds, but did get a few!
ReplyDeleteI miss Reifel living in Alberta and even though it was very quiet (bird wise) the day Kim and I were there, we still saw many wonderful sights.
DeleteThese are FANTASTIC! That hummer WOWS me!!
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely photos here--love the sandhill crane. We have lots of them here, where I live now--I had never seen them before moving here. I'm still in awe of them--and the babies are so aorable when they hatch.
