On Thursday last I was the unofficial photographer for Ted Chandik's Fly By
Dawn group at Sacramento NWLP0. We saw much on a very clear day as all the
usual suspects of this season were out including
geese,ducks,swans,ibises,cranes,shorebirds,raptors and passerines. For any
of you who want to share the experience,I have put together list of URL's
within my Pbase galleries.
A great shot for me was one of the ibises-

We saw several Ross"s Gooses which in this shot you can compare to a Snow
goose-

The Tundra swans had some interesting displays-

We got pretty close to a young Red-tail hawk-

Finally I documented a blast off of Snow geese caused by a raptor in a
sequence of shots,the first of which is below. To get thru all 5 you must
hit next with your mouse which is located in the upper left hand corner of
the photo-
