A Very Birdy Day

It’s been a long time since I hauled my SLR camera and big lens out to capture some birds and having it be so successful! I started with bird photography as a means to identify birds. Without a photo to refer to, I would forget the minute details of the bird; did it have an eyebrow, what color was it’s eye or breast, what was the shape of it’s head…. Later it became an excuse to get out and hike in the great outdoors and to add to my “life list”. Now I stopped counting and mostly just enjoy the walk.

Today’s bonus shot was when 2 river otters crossed my path and played in the grass 10 feet in front of me not caring or noticing that I enjoyed their show.
