p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Western Grebes and Ruddy Duck of Klamath Basin, Part 2


In some of these shots of the adult Western Grebe, the subject was closer, so perhaps less noise than in the previous posting. There is also one of a juvenile with an adult Western Grebe and then of course, Ruddy Duck in breeding colors. Who cannot love this character with a blue bill!

Thanks for viewing, C&C welcome.

Nice captures. #1 is really nice, but adding just a slight more room towards the front of the subject would help. Love the ruddy duck!

Thanks for your comment, I do agree that the crop is a bit claustrophobic. Carolyn

Lovely shots Carolyn. First and last are my favourites -- great detail and contrast in both. I think in #7 the horizon is a bit slanted.

Well done!!!

Thanks. These shots were taken in late June and early July at the Tule Lake Refuge. The Grebes are not likely to be there during the winter. February is the best time there to see bald eagles, it is their flyout peak from Bear Valley. Refuge photo blinds are available. Hope you get there. Carolyn
