    Colourful legs

    Up on that massive pipe I mentioned before (the one I advised you can ignore to pretend you're out in nature, but obviously I don't always do as I say - and anyway, I do want to show what the area is actually like) was a line-up of birds with variously coloured legs. Here are the most colourful...

    The smudgy, relatively unstreaked breast and gray mantle indicate nonbreeding (Definitive Basic) plumage. However, we can see a few new black streaks showing up on the flanks and neck indicating the beginning of a change to breeding (alternate) plumage. This species prefers inhospitable...

    If I could think of anything funny to say about this set, I'd make it my SF set for this week. After all, GYs almost seem to be laughing. But I'm afraid I'm mentally exhausted after two solid days of academic workshop. Well, I suppose I could make it an SF challenge to the rest of you to come up...

    and Take-off. I have a few more steps between shower and take-off - breakfast, packing, load the car, check-out, fill up petrol, return car to rental office, check-in at airport, mail the last of the postcards ... I might also squeeze in some BF browsing and/or a visit to some nearby birding...

    Sorry I've not yet caught up on browsing BF. And soon I'll be off line for a couple of days while traveling. But I will get caught up again, possibly later today. Meanwhile, here's one last direct report from my travels: I've caught a cold :( I'm on the mend, though, and hopefully my flights...

    As it's over an hour's drive down to Petaluma from Sea Ranch, the fog didn't hang around all that long after we arrived at the wetlands. Then the sun brought color back into the landscape. Even the birds seemed happier ;) ... or is that just this Yellowlegs's slightly upturned bill, a sign that...
