A lone Bushtit (Psaltriparus minimus) a rare sighting as they usually travel in groups. I think this one was looking around to see where everyone else flew off to. #birding #birds #birdphotography #Photography

While trying to shoot some pics of this Great Blue Heron, resting on a piling, a California Sea Lion swam by, stopped and barked at me a bit, then swam off. It happened so fast I didn't think about switching to video mode in time :( #birding #birds #BIRDS #birds! #birdphotography #Photography
