Osprey Road










Pics from Merced Falls, whereabout I visited after MWR....Common Mergansers about...my only previous Common Merganser pic was at Tule Lake!...would have liked to get closer...pics from the Bridge...one side of the River is posted, the other, Mud made problematic, though Cows were unconcerned with Mud...I parked Silver near the Bridge, and thought Bee Hive was close, but just lots of Bees browsing, sounding a bit like an electric dynamo!...Duck, far away blurry too, might be Harlequin...have to check...and Long Legs need checking...Hawk was in iconic foothill pose on Oak...didn't see any Hawks at the Falls, but Ospreys were about...almost missed Ospreys, but heard calls....today, at Lunch: sat for just awhile under the Ozone Cotton Woods...Ouzel, Acorn Woodpeckers, Mallard calls...quiet...sunny blueblue, cool...oh...on Count Day, sighted Robins at Dusk in Bobcat Meadow under the Oaks, and Seven Deer, here and there....Count Day, for me, was also a wrap up of a stretched out over several days, Critter Count Day, which I was remiss in not doing properly early November...hmmph....oh...behind the Cows, are the Canada Geese Flock....
