was pretty quiet except for....
this pair of Canada Geese....
and this pair of Mallard....
and surprisingly, a pair of Northwestern Crow. This one was poking about the shore...
while this one remained perched.....both were calling back in forth in soft calls that almost sounded like the mewing of a cat!
as the rain had let up a few small birds were starting to emerge as we walked back along the trail...
Spotted Towhee....and saw a Pacific Wren but too quick for a photo...
speaking of 'quick'....there were a few Gold-crowned Kinglets and I actually managed to get a photo of this one....not a great photo, but better than I normally manage. I've been watching for Ruby crowned Kinglets because they are are about the first of the migrants to show up, but so far haven't seen one.
there were a couple of Black-capped Chickadees down low in the bushes. Wondered why this one was being so cooperative....now I see why....it was having a snooze!
So I guess this is a step in the right direction....first 'after supper' walk of the season.
and look ~ there is some blue sky and sunshine! Please may it stick around.
