Nyquist Harcourt Wildlife Sanctuary Trip
Last week I took a trip to Nyquist Harcourt Wildlife Sanctuary and was very pleased with the experience. It was the first time I had ever been there. The trails are very well kept and I was surprised by the abundance of wildlife.
Crossing over the first bridge I saw some ducks on one side including wood ducks and black ducks I believe and on the other side there was some Mute Swans with babies. The shots I got of the Mute Swans didn't come out well so I am not going to post them. I was rather disappointed with the shots of them.
I did get a couple shots of the ducks and there babies as well as a fly catcher. I also saw tanagers which I don't see that often. It was a shame I did not get a good shot at them either. I also saw some Herons but they were not cooperating. They kept hiding in the marsh. I also saw a downy woodpecker but he only stayed for a second. But I was very happy with the trip and did manage a few good shots. The only thing I didn't like about the fly catcher shots was the shadows from the harsh sun, but other than that I was very pleased. Hope you like them.
