Great blue heron

Just hanging out along Wingra Creek.

There I was taking my lunch break at a picnic table in Vilas Park, when the resident sandhill crane family came sauntering over.

To be specific, a Caspian Tern.

I’ve seen (and heard!) sandhill cranes around, but today was the first chance I had to capture evidence of their return this year.

A young American robin, being curious about the world.

While on a lunchtime walk, I ran into some friends also out stretching their legs.

Red tailed hawk, probably looking for a meal, and getting annoyed with my presence.
