this morning at Springbrook
even the moss seems greener
parents are bringing out their kids
geese are nesting
Mallards are paddling
Great Blue Herons are fishing
White-throated Sparrows digging in the ground
I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to get some decent pictures of Ruby-crowned Kinglets ...
... without much success, as you can see. The little buggers were 30 to 50 feet straight up -- my neck still hurts!
Most of my shots turned out like this one.
Even though this photo may lead you to believe that I am preoccupied with bird rear ends, I did have better luck with American Coots (more pictures to follow).All in all, it was an excellent morning -- although I should have gone out earlier -- around sunrise -- which I hope to do tomorrow!
