Birding with Diana,Tyler and Taylor

Spent the Thanksgiving Holiday with our daughter Tiet and her family in Union City, Cali this past weekend. My new birder buddies are Diana (13), Tyler (8) and Taylor (5). Pretty game for long walks, looks at the bird book, and McDonald's afterwards!


Even Dad (Ty) spent some time with us in the windy reaches of the wildlife preserve. Except for this picture, all of the rest were taken by Diana or Tyler. I am really proud of them. They are actually great photographers!





Yup, that is actually a Cheeto!






Can you tell the difference between a Snowy Egret and a Great Egret? These super grandkids can!







One of Diana's favorite birds was the Black Phoebe. Kinda cute!



And then there was the "Mystery Bird" . A cross between a Turkey and a Goose? Whatever it is Diana was quite sure it needed to go on a diet!

Peace Out!

Those are some pretty cool birds. These pictures threw me off. Diana looks so much like Tiet! I did a double take and then still had to enlarge the picture, I thought it was Tiet at first. That's crazy.
