I went out birding at one of the local ponds here in Santa Fe County yesterday hoping something rare had blown in from the big winter blast that hit yesterday.
There certainly weren't any rarities, but nonetheless I had a blast taking pics of some of the local gang. Highlights include stunning colors on the male bufflehead's face, cavorting coots, and sinking grebes! Enjoy!
