Day 112 - a Year by the Sea

April 22, 2007 by OrientSee.

Yesterday, it was all about the showboats, great egrets. Today, this little guy just stopped and posed for me. He was very neighborly. There wasn’t much of that in the marsh today. Two red-tailed hawks took a fancy to the osprey platform at the T yard. They were both on it together when the osprey showed up and dive bombed them until the hawks gave it up and flew off. It took a while before the osprey convinced them to leave. All this was going while the egrets were busy spear fishing with their long yellow bills. It was a fun day in the urban wild.

Ciao!
