As I mentioned, we saw a lot of birds at East Point Preserve on Saturday morning. Here are some I've identified and a couple I have not:
Lots of pairs of common eider floating and flying around:
A black scoter:
And these smaller ducks (unidentified):
On land, we saw this splendid song sparrow - singing of course:
A rather leery veery (I think):
A brown creeper (rather far up the tree by the time I got a shot):
A ruby-crowned kinglet, who even showed a flash of his crown:
And a very hard-to-get but reasonably identifiable golden-crowned kinglet:
It seems the birds have decided that spring is here, even if the weather isn't absolutely sure.
Good to see!
ReplyDeleteIt was a very successful trip from a bird-sighting respect!
