Title: bayview Brickworks Cedar Waxwing & Friends
Post by: RobMcKay on July 15, 2007, 06:09:34 PM
I saw more birds In the two hours I was out today than I have in two weeks!
On top of the pictures below, I also saw a coopers giving chase to what looked like a red wing blackbird, and a few black crowned night herons, what a day!
All shot with the 300mm f/4 & 1.4 teleconverter, handheld, ISO 400 & 500.

awesome Pics Rob, I really like the Cedar Waxwings, one of my favourite birds. I don't think I've ever been to this place.....Is it worth the trip?

Rob - thanks for posting the photos.  I think the Brickworks is an under-appreciated site/resource (not that I want too many people wandering around down there).

Hi Tyger, and thanks!
Yup, its worth a trip.  On a side note, there is a path on the west side of the area that leads all the way up to Moore ave.  An interesting walk to say the least :).
