A Saturday bird-walk in a new location for me, with my new special daughter-in-law, who joined companionably into my deep delight in seeing birds.
The Wetlands is a reclamation project that seems a great success. We saw quite a few nice birds close up and calm: ruddy ducks, cinnamon teal, black-necked stilts, great and snowy egrets, a great blue heron, a black-crowned night heron, solitary sandpipers, and a southwestern cave swallow (likely). Best fun was a giant plastic-looking bullfrog in the shallows, burping at us.
Then along came two families of Canada geese to splash and play.
