Frank Lake

This photo gives an idea of what the Frank Lake area is like (mountains in the far distance). It is a well-known and very popular place for birders to visit, providing sightings of many different birds. I was so lucky today, when a friend invited me to drive down to the area for the day. As well as all the waterfowl species, we also saw two White-faced Ibis there (always a thrill, as these are very rare from May to September!) and two Great Horned Owl's nests. One nest had three large, fluffy owlets sitting on it and the other location had one owlet on a nest and another out on a branch. This latter baby was SO cute! Will probably upload a photo of it next time : ).
