Some older bird photos

Here are some older photos, but some of my favorite bird pictures from over the years. The first is a group of Avocets near Turri Road in the estuary.
The second is group of newly hatched Canada geese swimming along State Park Road in the channel.

And the last is a flock of gulls flying overhead at Estero Bluffs State Park one day when we had a juvenile grey whale wash up dead on the beach. We were out interrrupting their feast taking measurements with the folks from the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.
