Jewell Wetlands - Last Year, This Year

These are shots from the tiny little wetlands area near my house. Sorry about the significant difference in exposure.

Last Year (1D MkIII):

Looks like a nice place to go shoot some birds and bugs

Yes, there can be bugs, generally mosquitoes. This is a very tiny little wetlands maybe a quarter-mile square, but has a pretty amazing (and changing) population. From sparrows and Chickadees to Swainson and Coopers Hawks, resident Coyotes, Ducks and Canadian Geese as well as the occasional Great Blue Heron, Egrets and Night Herons.

love both but the second shot best, especially the water


the assortment of birds (and beasts) you mention would look great if they all came to drink at this lovely oasis

lol

Wouldn't that be something Marie!

I was kind of astonished how low the water was last year and how barren...
