Bird Watching

We've not done a lot of bird-watching this winter. I thought we might see more birds here at Reflection Lake, but I guess it's still winter time... There was a little Yellow Rumped Warbler hunting bugs in the tree bark along the shore this morning and a couple of white crowned sparrows, but that's about it. This is a not very good picture of the juvenile Black Crowned Night Heron that has been hanging around along with an adult one. We did see a Snowy Egret flying over this morning.

We had to make a Costco run this afternoon, so went to the one in Temecula, going south to see some different country. We saw a lot of farmland -- looked like it was planted into winter grain crops. The countryside down that way is actually greener looking. It must be out of the desert area.
