What I Did on My Winter Vacation

I had a fine time birding in the Sacramento Valley. I saw –

Thousands and thousands (and thousands) of this guy’s friends and family

Snow Goose

Thousands of these beautiful birds:

Tundra Swans

Several of these

Sandhill Crane

I also learned how to distinguish this guy

Common Goldeneye

from this guy

Barrows Goldeneye

In a few months people will be able to see the funny way the Goldeneyes court

It’s good to be home.
