On the 1st of may I visited the Klamath Basin again. I always enjoy going there, but this time it was even more enjoyable. I had the company of a fellow DG birdwatcher to share the sights with. Here are 16 pics showing some of the birds we saw.
( Ring-necked Pheasant )
Great Egret
Red-tailed Hawk
Great Horned Owl and owletts
American Avocet and two Sanderlings
Western Kingbird
Ross's Geese
Cool pics, the egret got a nice fish and the camoflage on the owls is amazing
Great Egret 2
Greater White-fronted Geese
Northern Shoveler
Ruddy Duck (with blue bill) and Coot.
Eared Grebe
White Pelican.
Bald Eagle
Snow Geese
and a Yellow-headed Blackbird
Wonderful pics adel!!!
Love so many it would take a long time to post.
Thanks for sharing them with us!
Great series of photos, adel. Certainly looks like a great place for birding.
Good pics. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice!
Surprised so many geese still there, I'd have thought they'd have left for the Arctic by now.

Wonderful series adel. Thank you.
What a great birding day! Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful! I especially like the Great Egret shots. So pleased you shared. Thanks! ;-)
What a wonderful time you must have had Adel...and what a variety of birds I don't get to see. Makes me determined to visit this area the next time I visit my home state. Of course now I am homesick...thanks for sharing!
Adel, in case you had not seen this report on the Bald Eagles, I thought you would be interested.
