Default Fun with the Camera... birds at Santee lakes.

OK so this is all with the 70-300 telephoto. Danny took the first one and the swimming family, I took the rest.

I loved the ducks - so sweet. The Heron steals the show tho - for me. I love the last shot - just stunning.

Mother in law called it a housefinch, but I really have no clue. If anyone has any ideas please feel free to chime in.
