We've been here many times, but the main reason we went on this foggy Saturday morning (the fog did burn off to be a great sunny day) was to see this bird...
Drumroll please.....................
A Virginia Rail!! Yes Virginia, this is a Rail. Gosh, wonder how many times that has been said...
Had to post a couple pictures. Nice looking birdie. Doug went back on Monday and said the bird has about 6 babies!! Hopefully I can get out there this weekend to see those chicks.
Next up - "polaroids" of some other birds we saw:
White-breasted Nuthatch
Golden-crowned Sparrow
Common Yellowthroat
Also seen:
A Rough Skinned Newt. This guy looks big but he's like only 3 inches long. Tiny little thing. I went all Macro on him to get this picture. Funky dude.
And now we move into the "art" projects:
A spider web with the "Michael Orton" treatment from Picasa. Whatever that means.
A 1960s feel to the pathway.
A Cinemascope treatment to the fog and snags.
Overall another great day in nature.
