Chilly morning at Ulistac


Western Jackrabbit
Originally uploaded by Bill Walker.

I decided to take an early morning visit to nearby Ulistac Natural Area in San Jose, hoping to find some songbirds. Mostly, I was bombarded with the crazy, tireless chatter of lonely bachelor Mockingbirds on every shrub. Still. I found this lovely Jackrabbit, and I managed to get one shot of the local Red-shouldered Hawk before it spooked. I also found what looks like a promising spot for photographing Red-winged Blackbirds on the reeds by the pond. (Five photos posted at flickr)
