The colors are subtle but delightful - lighting both the landscape and the birds/wildlife. We saw two Barn owls, Burrowing Owls, Great Blue Heron, Avocets, mating Mallards and Long-billed Curlews, a coyote and several buffalo and antelope along with the ubiquitous Meadowlark and Chukars. A pair of American Kestrels made their appearance also, showing little fear. And jackrabbits, of course.
Here's a few of the morning light shots that I liked:
From the start of the Causeway looking south and west down the island. |
Avocets with some gulls - their reflections really make the photo. |
These guys were really hungry - and they are sure beautiful in their breeding plumage. |
Looking North with a gaggle of seagulls down below. |
Anybody this big gets the right-of-way! |
Looking North again but from a different place. |
Looking North again - this time from the east side of the island - note the thin strip of land that we drive across. |
