Another photo made while kayaking. Birdlife on Lake Natoma (eastern Sacramento
county) is near a low point for the year. The Western Grebes and Clark's Grebe
have not been seen for several weeks, but it looks like post-breeding dispersal
has begun. I had not seen this Horned Grebe on my previous kayak outings on
the lake, and it looks like its breeding plumage has seen quite a bit of wear &
tear:

I'm looking forward to the fall/winter arrivals.
Technical stuff:
Leica R8/DMR @ ISO 400
Leitz 560mm f/6.8 Telyt with shoulder stock
Easy Rider Sea Hawk kayak
1/4000 sec @ f/6.8
All comments welcome.
