Juvenile Peregrine Falcons

The peregrine falcons were cooperating today. The fledglings have learned to fly. It was a good day.

Ospreys and herons in Huntington Beach, California

We celebrated my recent birthday by having lunch with an old friend, and then hunting for ospreys. Finding some black crowned night herons was a bonus.

I haven't posted for a while, so it's time to catch up. Here are some sea lions photographed at the Hanford Pier in Avila Beach, California.

More to come.

About Grumpy Old Guy

Thank you Democratic Underground for keeping me sane for the last four years. I think I was probably the longest lurker here. I started following DU during the Dubya administration. I was first attracted to the "Top Ten Conservative Idiots of the Week." I've been following along ever since. I always felt guilty for not participating, but refrained from doing so because I already spend way too much time online. However, after recent events, I just can't sit back any longer. I had to log on and thank you folks for all that you do. I'm a retired TV newscast director with forty years experience and more than eighteen thousand broadcasts under my belt, most of them live. I now travel the country (when I can) shooting landscape, astro and wildlife photography. You can see some of my photos at Ross-Kestin.Pixels.com or on Instagram at @oldguywithacamera. Thanks again! Ross K. Grumpy Old Guy
