I have to assume that the Green-winged Teals have nested near the local pond again this year. Although I haven't seen any young ones yet, the fact that the adult female has been overly curious about my presence there makes me feel there are ducklings hiding somewhere in the surrounding foliage or if a late nesting then eggs still being incubated. My best guess would be the former.

Whimbrels
The Whimbrels usually arrive back here in early July. Crowberries are their preferred food this time of year and there seems to be a pretty good crop available for them this year.

Osprey - Flight Shots
I managed to get a few Osprey photos this Summer so far, not the shot I've been looking for but I guess I have to be satisfied with these for now. Maybe I'll be luckier in the next few weeks if I keep at it.
