Left Coast Floyds: Reifel revisited

Today (Sunday) we took Lorraine to the Reifel Bird Sanctuary. This is turning into one of the marquee places we take visitors now, especially the outdoorzy birder types. The weather was reasonable, but showers and thunderstorms were threatening so we were constantly on the lookout for wet weather. Aidan doesn't look too impressed, but he really enjoyed the ducks this time. He was quite interested in them, and got a real kick out of them eating birdseed right off his stroller.

We saw lots of different birds. Ducks, and Canada Geese of course. The Sandhill Cranes were out today, as were three or four Great Blue Herons. We saw tons of swallows and red-winged blackbirds. Crows. And, some treats for Lorraine. Two Great Horned Owls, and a bald eagle. Oh, and a rooster, a hen, and a few poults.
