Here a quack, there a goose, everywhere a wild bird
All photos and video taken by me at Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park
Well, I am pretty pleased with myself. I've gone from not having any bird photos to taking dozens of closeups of these feathered critters. It all began with the Red Shouldered Hawk at the Botanical Gardens and continued through Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park.
I still have a montage of Stow Lake to bring you and will soon. I've just been very lazy since my book was released.
While in the area at Stow Lake, the bird wildlife plays and commingles with us humans. They are everywhere. They are in the lake, waddling around the grounds, swimming along the paddle boats and basically just hanging out and entertaining us humans. They are friendly, playful and very loving if you feed them. The video at the end of this post depicts a feeding frenzy. I tried very hard not to get the humans in the shot. I went there twice within a week and really enjoyed it. It is a hop, skip and a jump from the Botanical Gardens so it is very easy to visit all in one day.
Enjoy!

Kass, that is the color of that lake. As you go way further down the lake it's a crystal clear blue. I have some photos of that I will post soon.
Hearty bux, thanks for visiting. She can now call you "teeny duck" :D
Rainfield, HA HA HA! Hilarious, and yes, I am the wild human.
Duni, OMG how I would love pet ducks. You are so lucky.
Icy, Yes they congregated there because some people were feeding them.
