Despite Sunday being hurkle-durkle day, it was so beautiful that I had to go to the ponds. I was treated to 30 identified species of bird! Full list (with more photos): ebird.org/checklist/S1...

Yesterday's #deltaponds trip broke my heart. The rookery was abandoned, likely due to the bald eagle flying around it.
1. Phoebe (#greatblueheron that is always by the bridge)
2. #baldeagle at the empty heronry
3. #greenwingedteal
4. #northernshoveler My first one!

1. #canadageese honking and then diving their heads into the water
2. The heronry was 100% empty — for good reason! #baldeagle
3. #redwingedblackbird Full of song, this little guy.
4. #greatblueheron composite of the three images I captured as he flew overhead. 😂

Welcome December! On our family nature walk today, I saw some of these amazing fuzzy white fungi spore looking things. Even in colder months, nature is beautiful and fascinating.

Still going through this morning's photos but this one makes me happy. It's a bit blurry but watching the little red-winged blackbird chasing the bald eagle was such a treat I had to share.

This family was cruising. Heads down and moving swiftly. It was intimidating to watch; the urgency of getting from spot a to spot b safely was palpable.
