We were out walking the old rice fields a few days ago with no real expectations. It’s an odd time of year here. I guess it’s ‘almost fall’ season. Some birds have migrated through but not in any numbers that I’ve seen photographed.Most of what I spotted were Tricolors.

These images are a Tricolored Heron that flew around me several times. Finally when out in the open I grabbed a few shots. The distance was a bit too much but I was seeing just what I could get out of a small lens…that was too cheap to pass up.

Looking at this now I can see how brown some of the grasses have become.
