I broke my rule and tried to ID this gull. I like his smart orange bill. Heermann's Gull? |
Caspian Tern |
Common Yellowthroat |
Savannah Sparrows |
Rufous Hummer |
White-crowned Sparrow |
I kept hearing Chickadees and fledglings. On the walk back I found this guy, knee high and three feet off the path.
Well hidden |
Chestnut-backed Chickadee fledgling. Look at that face! |
A parent coming in to feed the little bugger. |
Then he had enough of me and turned his back. I love the stubby tail. |
Harlequin Ducks |
Gull and BABIES! Spotted head beasts! |
Next stop- Cannon Beach Sewage Ponds. No luck with birds, but this was a great place for dragonflies.
Cardinal Meadowhawk |
Bluets |
Eight-spotted Skimmer |
Yes on the Heermann's! Love those guys. That chickadee is ridiculously cute and pouty. Summer at the beach can be brutal- glad you survived!
ReplyDeleteOh wow--what great finds! That fledgling is ready for battle with that fierce face and war paint of his.
