Wildlife Refuges

A while ago I went to the Sacramento Wildlife Refuge and

the Merced Wildlife Refuge, here's a mixture of both.

Unfortunately many of the wading birds preferred the stubble

instead of nice reflective water.

Mom and Dad taking a break.

I really liked the late evening background. I tried to identify this

specific one but there are just so many of them.

I think he was trying to hide from me.

Two for One.

I've taken a lot of photo of Great Egrets but seldom get a decent photo

of them in flight.

I think this is a Red Tailed hawk, but not sure.

This Bald Eagle was very accommodating, I stuck around hoping

to get it's takeoff but it seemed very comfortable right there.

When I first saw this huge flock of birds in the distance I thought

they were probably Snowy or Ross geese. Nope they were

actually seagulls. Another car went by and spooked them.

Go, See, Enjoy, Stay Safe and Photograph.
