I visited the Farmington Bay Refuge early this morning to see what was there to be seen. Even at 6am there was a lot of activity. Muskrats eating, Great Blue Herons feeding their young, white pelicans performing their synchronized swimming/fishing activities and a variety of birds serenading the world.
Here's a few of the morning captures to share:
Flocks of white-faced ibis were everywhere - they love the refuge lands at this time of year. |

Can't you just imagine riding on the back of this prehistoric being? |
Magical light and clouds. |
These guys are a riot to watch - squawking, jumping on each other, and all sorts of antics. |
Flowers hide between the rushes. |
The goofball herons outlined against the FAA dome. |
A classic "Welcome Home, Sweetie". |
Every group of Canadian geese has one who does the guarding - and she looks mean! |
White pelicans highlighted as they play. |
