During lunch at work I like to go for walks around the area. It's a nice campus with a stream and lots of birds, especially ducks. Now I've been able to photograph and identify some of them. There are others that I still can't identify and some that weren't present today.
The easiest to find and and photograph are the mallards. They are everywhere and are more likely to run towards you for food than to run away.
Some of these ducks limp. I read that eating too much bread can leave ducks less hungry for nutritious foods and weaken their bodies and bones, so think twice before feeding them.
Brewer's Blackbirds are common and some of them have started acting very aggressive whenever humans pass by. I noticed that I didn't get any pictures of the really black ones, so I'll have to try again later.
The nearby overpass makes a perfect home for Cliff Swallows. I hope I can get some shots of the babies when they are ready to start peeking out.
