If you ever run short of muffed shots, let me know -- I can supply them by the terabyte.

i went out and tried to shot the stars again, a little better than my last attempt? i really need to practice manual focusing

again Orion is the main set of stars here, just pp a little different.

I went to San Jacinto wild life preserve today, going back here, spotted lots of new birds for me, supposed to be a golden eagle flying about earlier, even climb one of the hills with Rebecca, totally knackered when we got 3/4 up.

any one identifies the birds i would be happy.

birds no 1 & 2

 

[Roy1961]

bird no 3, looks like their beaks bend up?

 

[Roy1961]

1st one is a Northern Harrier, just to far away, a view from up the hill we climbed, a hawk flying above us and a pair of egrets

[Roy1961]

my fav bird atm, a male Kestrel, is this a Downey woodpecker? and my first sighting of a drangonfly, summer must be coming

 

[Roy1961]

a view on the top of big bear, lots of hawks on the ground, didnt see them eating at anything?

1, I think, is a Greater Yellow Legs.

2 looks like a Glossy Ibis. I didn't think they were found on the West Coast, though. So, my guess is a White faced Ibis in non-breeding colors.

3 Appears to be an American Avocet.
