Somebody took picture from a higher elevation just outside the Bay area and counted more than 100 birds. Twenty or so years ago if anybody saw one or two down South at Lake Erie we all rushed down to see it. Climate change and the result of it.

Climate changes, as shown here have more of an impact that many in society would care to know about.

At least, as shown, we have a graceful beauty to enjoy. Lovely details Karl!
Make your life spectacular!

a colourful image looks almost like a b@w, nice effect.

Nice image with good details, bird really stands out from the dark water. The big picture in your story is scary.

Even over here we are seeing birds that never used to appear in the wild, Karl. Driving along a country road last week we saw a couple of egrets walking across a field, and they are being spotted in many areas around the UK. Times are definitely changing but not always in a good way.

Great pose and setting, it could go a tad brighter on my screen.
