I went for a short walk at Bair Island in Redwood City this morning. It was a beautiful Spring like day with lots of birds. Here are 4 of them - a Willet, a Red-throated Loon, a Greater Yellowlegs and a Song Sparrow

Y'all I saw my first ever LOON the other day! Unfortunately a jetski had scared it on land, which must have been tough for it. They aren't good walkers. :( There was a cute ladybug on the friend tho!

The bird in the back was swimming alone, showing off the vestiges of its red throat, when a second bird popped up directly in front.
I was photographing the one in the back when a photo-bombing Red-throated Loon stole the focus.

A red-throated loon in winter plumage, without its namesake red throat. It is elegant nonetheless.
An elegant #RedThroatedLoon came so close, I could not capture its whole body. In winter, plumage lacks the namesake red throat, but this bird is poetry in motion. Taken in January 2025 at #BodegaBay, #California.

A large bird in black and white nonbreeding plumage swims on a slightly undulating sea, bill typically raised. Without its trademark color, its species is confirmed by the lack of a dark “shirt collar” on its neck.
