#BirdoftheDay and #NotaBranch and a Snowy Egret, on a fence near the Marin Rowing club, just near Highway 101. #Birds 🪶 #ClassicMono

Another #BlueSkyMonday, taken earlier today at Drake's Landing. I was hoping to get a picture of Drakes Landing (for Mallard Monday) - but got this instead. A male Belted Kingfisher. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin

#BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin #Photography - looking forward to the ducks coming back (taken last December).

I played around in Photoshop with the Green Heron image from earlier, or a similar one - to come up with a Aframov look rendition #Birds 🪶 #Photoshop #ArtYear

#BNWMacro, #ClassicMono and a Bee on a Gumweed. #Photography #Insects

The bright noon-day sun is often the enemy of the photographer, but not yesterday, when it helped bring out the elusive green of this Green Heron. #StunDay #Birds #EastCoastKin #ArtYear 🪶 #Photography

"Got any plans for Halloween?" #Birds 🪶

#AlphabetChallenge, and #WeekLforLines, Ballmer Yard, Seattle and railway lines. #ClassicMono #EastCoastKin

If we hide our bills I'm sure he won't know what kind of birds we are. #Birds 🪶 #Photography

#BWFri #ColorADay and even #SleepySep #Clouds, and a shot from New Zealand, a track leading down past the sheep. #EastCoastKin #Photography

#Scape to the weekend, and a #SeaScape and on the mouth of Doubtful Sound / Patea into the Tasman Sea, New Zealand's South Island. #EastCoastKin #Photography #FujiFilm

#FlyDay #FridayFlyDay #Birds and more Heermann's Gulls, flying off into the mist off Tennessee Valley Beach on a misty afternoon. 🪶

#Birds 🪶 anda. Heerman's Gull at Tennessee Valley beach, Marin. #Photography #FujiFilm #XT5

#ColorADay #YellowThu and flowers of Curlycup Gumweed with golden hour light. #Flowers #Photography #EastCoastKin #ArtYear 🌼

#UrbanGaze and a view over to San Francisco, from the Dultra quarry in San Rafael. #Photography #FujiFilm

A Great Egret, living up to its name. #Birds 🪶

I don't think I've ever posted a picture of a Great Blue Heron where the bird itslef took up fewer pixels. Hopefully you can see it. #Birds 🪶 #ClassicMono

#BlueSkyMonday, and a California Scrub-Jay, looking for somewhere to hide its acorn earlier today. #Birds 🪶 #Photography #EastCoastKin

This fits #PinkMon #ColorADay and #MacroMonday. A Naked Buckwheat, or possible California Buckwheat (are they the same?) with morning dew taken early today. #Flowers #Photography💮

#MallardMonday and a group hanging out at high tide at the edge of the creek. #Birds 🪶

The main reason for looking at my New Zealand RAW files again with the new #DxO #Photolab 9 was to see if the Fairy Penguins, taken late evening, would be better than 7 years ago. #Birds 🪶 #Photography #FujiFilm

Going through some shots from 2018 in New Zealand, trying out the latest de-noising. Came across this one for #StunDay #Photography #FujiFilm #EastCoastKin No jogger in my version.

A Black Oystercatcher with a clam lunch. #Birds 🪶 #Photography #FujiFilm

I call this crow - Canute! #Birds 🪶

#BNWMacro, and just lucky that the 50mm lens I had on the X-T5 to get some landscape shots on thw walk, is also a Macro - so when this Pacific Gopher Snake crossed my path I was ready! #Snake 🐍 #ClassicMono #Photography

Black and white, in colour. A Snowy Egret and American Crow - both interested in a seafood lunch. #Birds 🪶 #Photography #FujiFilm

A Pacific Gopher Snake on the hill walk this morning. Quite a small one. My reflection in its eye. #Reptiles 🐍 #Photography #fujiFilm

#Scape to the weekend, and a Coastal #Seascape - on the trail from Muir Beach to Pirate's Cove - Point Bonita Lighthouse and Pelicans in the distance, and maybe the VA Hospital?. #BWFri #EastCoastKin #Photography #ClassicMono

Another for #BWFri, and as we followed this couple walking along the harbour, I loved the way the setting sun was catching their hair, and their shadows stretching behind them and took it expecting to make it a #Monochrome shot. Walking to the sunset. #EastCoastKin #Photography

An Industrial #Scape today, and I wouldn't normally pick out the refineries at Richmond as a subject from Las Gallinas, but as a #BWFri #Monochrome study with the heat haze over the bay, this had a certain beauty to it. #EastCoastKin #Photography #FujiFilm

The evening sun catching a Black Oystercatcher - quite a few along the harbour this evening. #Birds 🪶 #Photography

Nice to have a Frank Lloyd Wright designed Civic Center, and especially as it houses a library too. A nice spot for some photography while I return a book. #Monochrome #EastCoastKin #ArtYear #FujiFilm

Another shot with a story - I just don't know what it is. Amsterdam again for #WindowsOnWednesday and cooling off with a leg out the window. #EastCoastKin #Photography

One for #RockinTuesday, and my wife said that it would take a lot of post work to make this attractive - but looks good to me. Not much processing, I did a focus stack on the different planes of rock and the vegetation to get good focus. Not much else. #Photography #FujiFilm #XT5

#MallardMonday you say? No problem, I was just leaving. Great Egret leaves the Mallards on the low-tide evening shore. #Birds 🪶

Tonights Blood Moon risong, just to the left of Mt Diablo. #PixelPro

The Ring-billed Gull is described as a fairly small gull - which puts into perpective the size of the juvenile Forster's Tern - which is a small tern. #Birds 🪶 #Photography #FujiFilm

There were a few American White Pelicans hanging out at Las Gallinas yesterday - doing preening with that big bill takes some skills - and flexibility. #Birds 🪶

#FlyDayFriday and this Forster's Tern, a small tern, flying over Las Gallinas looking for food. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin

#Scape to the weekend, and a #CloudScape this week - Las Gallinas looking over towards Richmond, and past China Camp - and some wonderful clouds and rays. #FujiFilm #Photography. Helvellyn monochrome preset from Henry Turner. #BWFri

#PalacesAndGardens #Water #EastCoastKin and Chantilly, from a few years ago. #Photography

Last Snowy Egret of the day, and the last of a trio of pictures from the same Egret - my favourite of the 3. #Birds 🪶

#WindowsWednesday and a street shot from Amsterdam from quite a few years ago. Much easier than carrying down the stairs. #EastCoastKin #Photography #StreetPhotography

A break from Snowy Egret, but there is a Great in this #WaderWednesday shot, with a MarbledGodwit, Long-billed Curlew and a fly-by of Least Sandpipers. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin #Photography

Chancing a 2nd Snowy Egret posting - same bird, so does it really count as another photo? #Birds 🪶

Question for the day. How many is too many Snowy Egret photographs? Asking for a friend. #Birds 🪶 #Photography

#RockInTuesday and Tennessee Valley Beach and some very cool rocks at the edge of the beach. #Photography #Geology #Rocks #Marin

Great Egret's certainly get themselves into some odd positions when searching for food. Giving the side-eye to breakfast at golden hour early today. #Birds 🪶

#MallardMonday, oh, and a Snowy Egret wanting to be in this one too. #Birds 🪶

Another jpg from today, and a Long-Billed Curlew (back) and I think a Marbled Godwit in front - although Merlin was also hearing a Long-Billed Dowitcher, which I don't think is this one - as they have yellow legs. #Birds 🪶
