 Yep, I went out looking for the Bird Challenge (and didn't get anything that I loved), but did catch this guy coming out of the water with a fish. It's hard to tell in this picture that it is a fish, but it is! More rain today, a bit of spotted sunshine. It is supposed to rain for 10 more days. And they call this Sunny California.

Well, now, that's certainly some capture! The reflection on the water works really well, too.

Fun in the sun. The sun is just above those thin clouds, trust me. This is a great action shot of the Tern fishing. I love the movement in the air and in the reflection in the water.

We're getting your rain from a few days ago. It's raining and raining! Kind of nice, actually.

This is a great shot - love the reflection on the water, too.

That fish is too cool! The red beak is just right, too. Great capture.

I like that we are getting so many birds in the side challenge :-)

Nope, can't tell this is a fish. Looks more like some huge, mutant bug. But that would be a better story, anyway ;-)
