Canon 20D, 300 f/2.8 with 2xTC, F11, 1/1000th
This shot is of one of the Adults from a nesting pair of White-tailed Kites this past Spring. All of the local Bolsa Chica photographers enjoyed the opportunities this presented but were also respectful of keeping distance. Two chicks were successfully fledged. I was extremely saddened to receive an email from Vince Thomas, that the land owner of that portion of the Upper Mesa opted to cut down the tree that they nested in , against Coastal Commission direction. It appears that all trees in that area will ultimately go. At least one adult is still in the area, and hopefully he/she will pair again in a new local location. Sadly the "progress" and "restoration" of Bolsa Chica does not appear to be in the best interest of the native inhabitants or nature photographers! Thanks for viewing and comments - Larry Last edited by Larry Kaufman on Sun Oct 02, 2005 11:54 am, edited 1 time in total. |
