I went for a walk at Lake Cunningham on Sunday morning. Here is a Great Egret hopping around the marshy area near the lake, and some white Pelicans. I've never seen this many Pelicans in such a small space. How many do you see?

A White Pelican and a couple Cormorants on Almaden Lake. I don't often see Pelicans on this lake. I wish he had come a little closer.🪶 #birds #whitepelican #photography #wildlife #almadenlakeWHite

I saw this Green Heron on a log on Almaden Lake this morning. The birds love to pose for cameras. My ON1 Photo Raw software did a pretty good job cleaning up this noisy image shot on a cloudy morning at ISO 4500 with a DX sensor.

Saw a lot of Song Sparrows by Cottonwood Lake this morning. They don't sit still for long, but this one did for about 10 seconds so I could get the shot.

Here are a couple of Wood Ducks I saw on Cottonwood Lake today. I've seen the females before, but this is the first time I've seen the male - wow! That's the most beautiful duck I've ever seen. #birds #photography #woodduck #hellyerpark 🪶

I just returned from a trip through New England this week. Here's a photo of the Portland Head Light at Cape Elizabeth. There's probably a million photos of this view on the Internet. So, now there's a million and one. 😀

I didn't see much wildlife when I visited Santa Teresa Park this morning...until I was driving out. Just as I was leaving the park I noticed this Red-shouldered hawk perched on a power line and captured the image out my car window.
