The Pacific Flyway (15)


Hi all - It\'s been a while since I\'ve posted, but I am happy to be back! It\'s migration season along the Pacific Flyway. I spent two days just before the new year at the Sacramento and Colusa National Wildlife Reserves, as well as some time in District 10 hunting for tundra swans. The bird viewing was over-the-top extraordinary. It was amazing to see hundreds of thousands of snow geese and white-fronted geese, as well as tundra swans (a favorite species of mine), dozens of raptors, and thousands of ducks and other water birds. Comments and critiques appreciated, as always!
