After the fog from the morning lifted, I went out to the dyke to enjoy the sunny afternoon.

Nice view.

The Short-eared Owl in the distance.

A Northern Harrier came by and chased off the owl.

The harrier guarding its territory and searching for food. I took this photo using my new tripod today - with manual focusing to get the sharpest image.

The owl moved to another post.

What really surprised me today was seeing Cedar Waxwings (
Bombycilla cedrorum) still hanging around in Richmond. I always figured they would be some place warmer by now. Or perhaps this flock is just passing through.

The animal definitely staying here are the Snow Geese!

Some taking off.
Some landing.

And all definitely staying.

Sun(s) setting?

Watching the sunset on a chilly afternoon.

Time to go home. But not before testing my tripod again and manual focusing and capturing the moon.
