How's your weekend shaping up to be? A very productive day's for me at today.
Turned up a - *Tundra* (NOT Trumpeter as first reported - Thanks much to @chuqvr for ID correction) swans and some of the best views yet of the other usual suspects found at that location. This year's first good day ;-)

An American kestrel for the third series. This one from is the best yet I have of the species.

I usually spend 31st Dec doing a spot of birding but it’s been raining the whole day. So I ended up baking some keto friendly sugar free biscuits instead…

Drove to today for the last birding trip before I fly to India.
Saw this just before the climb up

These people think they are the next NatGeo of the year. I can't believe that these guys do not see the signboard!! I have been seeing these characters more often these days at ... I was watching a flock of greater white fronted geese that ventured right up to the edge of the water when this fellow flushed them with his foolishness!! Affordable cameras = Foolish photographers!!

Was at yesterday. There’s a very good reason for asking you to stay inside your cars when on the autoroute. If you have to get the shot at the cost of spooking wildlife with your presence what does it show about you as a wildlife photographer/naturalist? Don’t do this please

So the Sandhill cranes and Snow geese have arrived. Now its officially birding season and its that time of year to find excuses to make the trip to Merced every few days in the hope of making that bucket list shot of Sandhill cranes courtship dance :)

Many times, are downright uncooperative subjects like the last 2 shots show :)
