surf's up

the swarming

I took these photos at Sea Cliff beach in Aptos, CA. These birds are on a feeding frenzy of large schools of fish ... possibly grunion. After one school of fish is harvested, all the birds take-off up the coast to find more fish. It is quite an amazing sight!

world of birds

a safe place to land

I took these photos at the Oroville Wildlife Area in June '08. This 11000 acre nature preserve in Northern California provides birds, such as these turkey vultures, a safe place to land.
