Half Moon Bay en fuego


American Goldfinch
Originally uploaded by Bill Walker.
All the cool kids with their big lenses are heading down to Blufftop Park on Popular Street in Half Moon Bay, where a irruption year for Meadow Voles is leading to a really big population of Red-tailed Hawks, White-tailed Kites, Northern Harriers, and American Kestrels. Go over to flickr to see some cool midair shots of Kites duelling. The shot of the day, though, was this American Goldfinch showing its non-breeding plumage to great effect.
