Good morning, world!
This is from yesterday’s quick loop with the birds. I know the one in the water is an avocet (American avocet, I’m guessing), but I don’t know about the two flying. Anyone?

Here is a little series of shots from yesterday’s visit with the birds. I continue to be fascinated by the ibis. The colors one sees when the light hits its wings can be lovely. This was in very little light, so there isn’t as much color as sometimes, but I was happy to catch the bird in flight.

Continuing through 2014 photos, I’ve reached February 14. Dan and I took a trip to the Central Valley that day, and seeing photos from then certainly brings back lovely memories. This is a morning shot: the fog was starting to clear and the sun just coming up.
Cranes (I), 12.22.14
Even while I doubt I have anything print-worthy from yesterday, I realized that there are shots that I like because they remind me of what we saw. They remind me, too, of what I good time I had with everyone.
Of course it’s possible I may find I do have things I can print: I start out not liking anything and after a while my eyes start to see the possibilities. Here’s hoping!
