A busy week is behind me and I'm happy to be home and to enjoy the weekend. My job requires to travel quite a bit. It sounds like lots of photo opportunities but this is not always the case. I still like to post here every week and this is when pictures from my archive have a chance to see the light of the day.

Early in May this year I spent a few hours in the Bolsa Chica Wetlands at the Pacific coast in California again. I love this place because of its great opportunities for bird photography. There were not as many birds as in November last year, but still enough to fill all my memory cards within a few hours. I studied the images from last year carefully before I went to Bolsa Chica. This and all the practice in the Green Island Wetlands here in Eastern Iowa helped to bring home a much higher rate of keepers this time. I hope you enjoy.
