Fishing at the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge
I photographed and shot video of this Snowy Egret fishing at Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge recently.
Cigüeña americana (Maguari Stork) Ciconia maguari
Hace algún tiempo atrás mencioné en una de las publicaciones de fotografías obtenidas en Cambyretá acerca del mejor momento de la jornada del 16 de Noviembre pasado cuando regresábamos hacia la ruta 12. Habiendo traspasado el cruce del camino a la casa del guardaparque pudimos ver cerca del camino a una solitaria Cigüeña forrajeando en […]
Crested Caracara Portrait
