I went out to the nature preserve in Oceanside today, here are a few of the more decent shots:

Sweet! I saw one of those egrets by the lake I run around yesterday, neat looking birds. Hey what's that one bird in the grass called- that a crane?

Great question. I'm not yet able to ID a bird like I can an A340-200

Nice shots, I suck at identifying birds also and I shoot a lot of birds but my A.D.D comes into play when trying to remember.

Nice,most of them are Egrets we have them here in Florida And there Everywhere lol I think the blueish one is close to a blue herin or a mix of some type.
