Some really cool shots taken in the park today

Sunday January 13th 2008, took my son Denis a Nikon D80 with a telephoto lense and went to Gibson Ranch Park to take some pictures of wildlife there. Found a brand new fishing pole while I was there, I guess I could go fishing some day, but don't know how.

These I think are pretty cool shots...



snow goose, seen very rarely in the part, as a matter of fact I saw it first time today
we have lot's of Canadian geese though.


very cute bird, probably migratory landed to take a rest for a few days in the park
or maybe even settled in CA


Have no idea what this bird is, but likes to hang around trees
and looks pretty ogly when it flies


another shot of the same bird...


these tend to hang together and there are lot's of them, no one
seems to hunt them, I guess they are not very yammy.


They look very lovely from the reasonable distance


especially the cool thing about them that they have a red eye

marching Canadian geese, which are very abundant here...
