Birds, Words, Pics + TV
During our recent trip to Las Vegas, my wife booked us on a trip to the west rim of the Grand Canyon. It was absolutely amazing.
The west rim is on land owned by the Hualapai Tribe, part of their reservation. It’s definitely less crowded that other parts of the Grand Canyon, which made the trip even more special.
And, of course, I was able to photograph some new birds: Ravens (which are everywhere around the canyon) and a Rock Wren.
The first thing that came to my mind when seeing them was how prehistoric they look, like some character out of one of the Jurassic Park franchise movies.
It’s been a fantastic spring season at Orlando Wetlands watching so many different birds nest and successfully raise their young.
This endangered Whooping crane – one of about 400-600 that still exist in the wild – lives where a subdivision is gobbling up its habitat.
