In the air, on the ground, in the water. . .

I walked out to the east side of Vancouver Lake Friday. . . 

I saw ducks in the water . . . 
a blue Heron flew and landed on the grass. . . 

and these birds could not make their mind which way they wanted to fly!

Birds everywhere at Shillapoo Wildlife Area adjacent to east  Vancouver Lake

  6. You really don't have snow! The gras is green! :))So beautiful photos you've got of the birds. I cannot figure out which gras (the long ones) it is, on the photo of the Heron, but such a wonderful photo!! :)

  7. Looks like the birds are on the move in Washington. I'm looking forward to the spring bird migrations!

  8. I love the bird pictures! I never have my camera at the right time. Well right now I don't even have a camera. No more Canon for me!

  9. Hi Paulie,
    I love all your pictures. So interesting. I feel I know Washington! I love the blue Heron with the very tall grasses behind him. Such a nice picture! Hope you are doing well. How much time do you spend each day taking pictures?

  10. We had a bird similar to this in our back yard or maybe it was a crane. Flying birds are hard for me to capture. Good job.
