Bolsa Chica Wet Lands

 It was the perfect evening to take a walk at the wet lands and of course I brought my camera.  The last time I was there the terns were becoming active and I was hoping the same would happen during my evening outing.  Well I wasn't disappointed, not just were the terns out fishing, but I was able to capture a larger assortment of birds this time around.

A Forster's Tern looking for fish.


A lone cattail as I hiked further into the wet lands - Very peaceful


A Snowy White Egret looking for a place to fish


A Cormorant coming in for a landing


Don't see much of these in the wet lands, but here's a Canadian Goose taking a break


A Marbled Godwit looking for din din
