For The Birds

Today's bike ride was a relaxing exploration of Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge. 

I was pleasantly surprised by this fella.  My, what a beak, what a neck. What an exquisite creature.

Best part of the ride besides enjoying the nice temperature was this sign!

I soaked it all in, appreciating the beauty of the area.  The stillness. The quiet.  The calm.

A nice way to spend a Saturday afternoon.  Soothing.
