Audubon Canyon Ranch

Last Saturday, Bob T. and I hiked up to the Henderson Overlook at the Audubon Canyon Ranch in Bolinas, to witness Egret chicks taking their first flight, from nests high up in the large redwood grove. We were told there were more than 100 chicks in the trees. Soon they will be gone. Look closely at my picture and you will see a couple of the large nests. It is hard for me to imagine taking such a "first flight". But then, I am "chicken", obviously the wrong kind of bird!
