There were birds on the other side of the roost but they were too far away for me to accurately ID them.
I know that some were Godwits because I found this wing feather sitting among the saltmarsh plants.
I saw numbers of Herons and Egrets close by and on the way back this Little Egret gave a nice photo opportunity. It was standing on a little rocky island and let me get quite close before it flew a little way on to the next rocks.

the shots of the Little Egret is really goodlooking. Perfect light and colors. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. I love your pics. The second shot with the tree in the middle is really nice as are the bird shots. Beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteHi NatureFootstep and Rohrerbot, thanks for commenting. This is a beautiful place and every time I go out the light and colors are a little different. It's a challenge to get it just right in photos.
ReplyDeleteThe Egret was a welcome relief from all those grayness, MIck. Sometimes one bird is all that it takes.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob, yes the one good photo op. for the morning and a beautiful bird as well.
ReplyDeleteFor a minute there, in your first two pictures, I thought you were staying near us in Oregon -- same shade of gray this week here.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the fire but I love the shades of grey.
