John and I went to the Sacramento Wildlife Preserve yesterday to see the famous Snow Geese. I was amazed how many birds there were. We took the auto tour so we could get closeup. I learned that about 2 1/2 million birds vacation here for the winter!! We got upclose and personal with an Egret...we were about 6 feet away. Egrets are my favorite bird. The group of snowgeese in one shot are hanging out and then all of a sudden they flew away! It was amazing. The other photo is of a huge hawk perched in a tree. There were lots of those too.
