Not so wild birds

5/21/2020

I started out my walk today, with the intention of taking photos of birds along the way.  What I learned is that taking pictures of wild birds is hard to do.  They fly, they are fast, and they do not pose. I was able, however, to find some more cooperative subjects, that may or may not qualify as avian!
The wiry pink flamingo is not native to the SF Bay Area, but in recent weeks, many of these birds have been seen in the area around Edgewood Park, typically perched on mailboxes.
This particular example appears to be laying an brightly colored plastic egg.  The bronze 94062 quail is quite rare, I found this solo bird on the outskirts of Woodside, it may be in a silent, meditative retreat, or it may be inanimate. Being in its natural habitat, I respected its privacy, and refrained from disturbing the winged creature to ask of its intent.
I will continue my Anne LaMott inspired chapters in this Bird by Bird saga tomorrow.
