Adolescent Kites
When I heard of the juvenile kites at Ellis Creek, I hurried to see/photograph them. Watching them interact with each other and their parents was quite the treat. The only problem was the 7 ticks I took home with me!

Alman Marsh and the Petaluma River
The Alman Marsh is 80 acres of pasture/marsh that sits between Shollenberger Park on the south and the Petaluma Marina on the north.

Baby Coot
One early morning we were lucky enough to come upon coot chicks in the reeds at Shollenberger. They were hilarious looking with their orange "hair" feathers. A day later they looked more like their parents.
