Gone Fishing 08-27-16

I've been waiting for a sunny morning for about three weeks now, but rather than sit at home doing nothing, I decided to head out to the Hayward Shoreline Interpretive Center and see what I could find.  There were the usual suspects: egrets, long-billed curlews, American avocets and ducks.  The egrets and American avocets were what I found most interesting.










































The pictures weren't as nice as they could have been had the sun broke through the clouds, but I'll take what I can get.  Photography is about taking risks -- no risk, no reward.

Birds at Sunset 08-13-16

Although there isn't as much activity on the Hayward Shoreline in the evening, I managed to make a few nice bird pictures on Saturday.  The golden hour light was absolutely amazing.
