A snowy egret (Egretta thula) in the Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge, San Francisco Bay. Not the green lore by the yes (yes I had to look this one up) apparently they can turn this shade during breeding season #birdphotography #birdphotographycommunity #naturephotography #Egret #naturebeauty #birdsofmastodon #Nikon #Z9 #Sigma #bird #birds #birdwatching #birding #nature #photography #DonEdwards #nikonphotgraphy

A snowy egret (Egretta thula) from my ride today fishing in the Don Edwards Wild Life Refuge. He was about 100 yards away. This was shot at 15fps so the total elapsed time from the first picture till his beak is out of the water with the fish is 3.25 seconds #birdphotography #Z9 #birdphotographycommunity #naturephotography #naturebeauty #birdsofmastodon #Nikon #Z9 #Sigma #bird #birds #birdwatching #birding #nature #photography #DonEdwards #nikonphotgraphy

My current view on my lunchtime walk. Question is, what bird can you hear chirping in this field?

"Sharp is the kiss of the falcon's beak"
Its prey (typically another bird, pigeon) is struck and captured in mid-air. The peregrine falcon strikes its prey (@ 200mph+) with a clenched foot, stunning or killing it with the impact, then turns to catch it in mid-air!

"You must have the bird in your heart before you can find it in the bush."
John Burroughs
The Blue-Gray Tanager
This is a common, restless and noisy species. Usually found in pairs, but sometimes small groups. It thrives around human habitation.

A Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) with its kill in the Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge, San Francisco Bay. I watched for quite a while. The two crows kept trying to steal the kill (a duck) and the Eagle kept picking it up and moving. Unfortunately it kept getting further away #birdphotography #birdphotographycommunity #naturephotography #Eagle #BaldEagle #Crow #naturebeauty #birdsofmastodon #Nikon #Z9 #Sigma #bird #birds #birdwatching #birding #nature #photography #DonEdwards
