Running out of time tonight, but here's a quick photo of a Black Skimmer (Rynchops niger) in Bodega Harbor on 10 June 2023. [You can click on the images for larger versions.] I'll share more about them tomorrow!
I got lucky yesterday. I was checking on some plants in the salt marsh, but I had heard that skimmers had been observed the day before, so I brought my camera with me. As I was leaving the skimmers appeared and started feeding in the same area. So cool!
Whoa!! What a dramatic photo of one of my favorite birds!
