I can't help but think of an early monoplane

Wev, bad attachments after flower post in #1091

Okay, thanks. All fixed -- fingers crossed once again. I'm beginning to tire of uploading nearly every image twice, thrice, or more on this site. It's hard enough for me to get a decent image and I don't need the extra aggravation sharing it, I really don't.

21 March

The second bird class field trip -- Bolsa Chica Wetlands. I have to admit I am way out of my depth (such as it is) with shore birds; I'm much more a woodland kind of guy. I was struggling to keep up with the onslaught of varieties and fighting horrible gray light that didn't burn away until we were ready to leave, of course. I filled 1 1/2 16gig cards, but only managed about 85 keepers, so my average was pretty damn poor.

And don't worry, I won't be post them all.

This is a fairly lousy picture of the clapper rail, who likes to stay hidden down in the marsh grass. These rails have made a remarkable comeback with the restoration of the wetlands -- from a few handful to more than 50 this year.
