Alexis' pics from yesterday

Now that I see it closer, I think it's a painted turtle.




and this one is too.


We found a spot where cedar waxwings liked to stop for a drink.




I think they're our most handsome birds.


But black-crowned night-herons are pretty good looking, too.

What kind of camera was used? Sorry for being anonymous! My OpenID was giving me trouble. :(

She used her old Canon powershot S2, which I was carrying. She has a new camera now, but she wasn't carrying it--when I saw the turtles I handed her the s2 because I knew she'd be able to get a better picture than me.

Ceder waxwings always looked airbrushed to me, the way their colors so beautifully flow into one another.
