I see Cooper’s hawks frequently in the area but they are always tucked into fir trees and hard to photograph. I was out looking for birds and here he was where the eagles usually perch.

I love these ravens silhouetted…
April Fools….
I was down in the dungeness spit area tracking eagles and a peregrin falcon, when I saw a Pelican standing on a piling. I was like whoa, I’ve never seen a Pelican in these parts…
I gatheredd my tripod and bag and hoofed it over closer. Trying to be quite so I didn’t spook it.
When I focused in– I was awe man are you kidding……..!
April fools on me.
One of us is Unique….
This American Wigeon was the only one in this pond FULL of Mallards at Carrie Blake Park. He was sooooo pretty in the sun.
Carrie Blake duck pond–always fun!
Heron Mascot for the Sunshine Festival
This heron stood on the sculpture in the Japonese Garden of Carrie Blake park all afternoon and greated visitors for the festival.
The last swans
These beautities visit the fields every year. You have to get them just coming in right at sunrise each day. Otherwise they are just wallowing in the muddy fields.
