Simply beautiful photos Don! How lucky we are to live in this world! Thank you for the reminder!

Here's a fun question: what is the very first bird you hear in the morning?
Keep an open ear ...

Uh, that would be either Hector, or his near twin Not-Hector, or Red Rider. And I know which is which by their crow.

I know little about birds, really. Or photography. Just learning.

Spectacular, Don
I was just walking there last week marveling at all the different species.
Terrific shots, thanks

they are all fabulous photos, but the first flying heron shot is world class...

Those are really great---

My favorite is the first one--it looks like a morning Pelican Union Meeting.

Thanks for posting all of them.

Wow, those great blue heron in flight pictures really came out well.

For some reason I really like the two pangas in the morning light picture. It's so typical we've just grown to accept it. But it really is a very special time of day. The long horizontal lines add to the serenity of the scene.
