Happy "Bird-Day" Grandma!
2012.01.23
Ring-Billed Gull
|
Rufous Hummingbird
|
Spotted Sandpiper posing on the deck for Tom
|
The Violet-Green Swallow also seems to be posing for a photo...I think Tom caught it's best side!
|
Western Bluebird
|
Western Grebes showing off their courtship ritual at Eagle Lake
|
Western Scrub Jay
|
Western Tanager
|
Black-Necked Stilts...one of my favorite Eagle Lake birds!
|
American Avocet
|
American White Pelican flying over our bay at Eagle Lake....I think we got this shot from the kayak.
|
The avocet made it in here twice!
|
We love our Bald Eagles up at Eagle Lake
|
Grandma's least favorite bird....the Brown Headed Cowbird. They are gluttons when it comes to bird seed....they don't leave any for the other birds.
|
Bullock's Oriole
|
I know I said the Stilt was my favorite bird up at the lake....but the California Quail is really my favorite!
|
Tom got these Caspian Tern's at the Thermalito Afterbay....but they're also seen up in the mountains.
|
Eared Grebes
|
Forster's Tern
|
Green-Tailed Towhee
|
House Wren building it's nest right in front of our deck.
|
Killdeer
We have enjoyed viewing all of these birds up at Eagle Lake with Grandma Naoma over the years. Grandma lives in Boise now, but we thought we'd bring a little bit of her hometown area to her on her 97th birthday. Happy Birthday Naoma! |
