Camera Critters - Birds

-


I love Spring with all the beautiful blooms and vibrant colors. Our feathered friends are out and about harmonizing and gracing us with nature's symphonic tunes. I am forever chasing birds and was so lucky to find this little one at Stern Grove.



This shot was taken at the SF Botanical Gardens. What a treat.

I think spring and summer to me are the best times since they both are interesting. Everything seems to come out at this time of year.

Make sure to click the images to enlarge. These photos should be viewed up close and personal. I absolutely loved the Hollywood and Highland center. It is located along Hollywood Boulevard and is the center of attention. Although it houses restaurants and retail shops, I see it as much more than your average mall. It is an open air complex which I really like.
