...we like birds

Canada geese strut their stuff.

We loaded our binoculars and cameras in the car again today and drove to the Kenai River Flats for another Sunday afternoon of bird watching. There were more birds than last week and a lot more open water. We saw Canada geese, white-fronted geese, mallards, pintails, and a lone swan which was way probably a quarter mile away. Our youngest daughter was snapping pictures as quickly as she could and had over 90 images at our first stop. We had to delete about half of them so she could take photos at our subsequent bird watching stations. When we got home she asked, "Did we take all these pictures because we like birds?" I had to chuckle and say, "yep...we like birds."
