I Can Take Good Bird Pictures... Really!

My 'Blue Period" continues to be blue.  No Bluebirds.  No Blue Jays.  And my pics of other birds within our mountaintop community have been less than desirable.

But when I wander away from home, I take pictures like this:

No, I was not way out in the wilds.  I was at Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge which is within the confines of the Duke City.  

VdO is one of the nation's first urban wildlife refuges.  A large part of their mission is to teach Urban Folk that Nature Matters!!!

How cool is that?

So this is my shout out to VdO,  Check out their website, and if you're in the area, check out the refuge.
