Some pics from the Abbott's Lagoon at Pt. Reyes National Seashore. Not very good light as it was a drab overcast day. The Hudsonian Godwit is smaller than the Marbled Godwit and does not have striking marbling on the wings. #Birds Posting again with the Birds tag added.

Osprey at Kehoe Beach. Close enough to see the yellow eye of the adult bird. Younger birds have an orange eye.Bobcat in the grass along Sacramento Landing Rd.Brown Creeper heading up a branch along the Cross Marin Trail. These birds are difficult to photograph as they are always moving quickly and lurking in the shadows.Young Cooper's Hawk in a tree along the Cross Marin Trail.
