Sunshine!

What is that bright light in the sky!

Sunshine!

10 days into the new year and we are finally seeing some sunshine!

Blue sky

looked even better in that direction.  Apart from ducks and a few eagles there wasn’t anything around.  Not one small bird seen or heard the entire length of the trail…and some tapping…when tracked down, turned out to be a leaf tapping against a branch…

Northern Pintails

I had noticed quite a large flock of ducks off of a point and aimed the camera in that direction…as I suspected they were Northern Pintail, along with some Mallard and Green Wing Teal.  This does continue to be an unusual year with the numbers of Pintails and Shovelers in the area…species we usually see only rarely…
