On Thursday, we started the New Year off with a bang and saw the most hawks we've ever seen in one day...
We finally got a chance to go to the refuge! We went to both the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge and the Colusa NWR and it was the perfect day to go. The sky was dark and mysterious and beautiful clouds provided the perfect backdrop for our photos.
There were so many hawks out. Not just at the refuges, but on the side of the freeway, perched in trees and on mile markers. They must love this kind of weather as much as we do!
We saw a total of 29 birds (the loon we heard but didn't see makes 30) and managed to take a photo of just about every one of them. It took me a couple of days to go through all the photos (boy, there were a ton of great ones!) and choose the best ones to post. Here are a few from the Sacramento NWR...
And the photos from the Colusa National Wildlife Refuge...
I already can't wait to go back again!
Incredible! Just made my morning. Thank you!
