Ugh! The white and brown pelican shot is awesome! Those are two birds I've never seen side by side, I don't think they often occupy the same location.

I even fortog to spray when I walked down to the Bay and didn't even get bitten. People say that two days after a rain is when they are worst, that's when they hatch out starving for blood. So it is a matter of timing I guess.<br /><br />The host told me that the loops were closed because they were flooded due to all the rain we've had this year. It's true it has been the wettest dry" season ever. But I thought it was crazy that you couldn't pay for two nights at once. <br /><br />Beautiful pictures and same as I just said on your earlier post (as usual I'm catching up)... I'm trying hard not to be too envious. <br />Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-90098835329958954482016-02-23T10:31:54.335-05:002016-02-23T10:31:54.335-05:00I agree...the thing is people need jobs, the budge...I agree...the thing is people need jobs, the budget is slashed to the bone so only part time or volunteers are doing the work...Sondrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485055844682296876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-49831128528851233642016-02-22T23:13:44.872-05:002016-02-22T23:13:44.872-05:00Yes I love the Osprey up in the White Mountains I ...Yes I love the Osprey up in the White Mountains I have some pictures but not as good as yours. Must try harder this summer if I get there.<br /><br />I don't know why are parks don't ask for volunteers to clean them up. I bet there would be lots of folks willing to do this. Offer them some free camping and watch them come. Having to make reservations is a waste of time and half the time if you just show up the places are almost empty anyway. I have seen huge campgrounds with lots of loops with maybe 1 camper in each loop. So I just go without a reservation and if I have to move to make room for someone with a reservation I move. Isn't better to have people show up with out a reservation than to have all those empty sites. No money to be made that way.

I had a good walk this morning around our local reserve and whilst I saw lots it just cannot compare to the huge numbers and species that you have seen recently. Still birds are birds and whilst we often wish to see the exotic ones we're lucky to have what we have on our doorstep.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047342243577979820noreply@blogger.com
