Yesterday's Meeting for Business ended a little earlier than i expected, so i felt like we had time to head off somewhere for our walk. We went across the bay to another bit of marshland, and perhaps we really could have just gone to a familiar trail and saved gas and time. Another couple approached me on the trail, and one began, "This is our first visit here..."
"Ours too," i responded. They were from San Francisco and normally bird in Marin; we both admitted to arriving at the Don Edwards NWR on a whim. "It's all the same birds," my interlocutor bemoaned, and -- yes.
Still, new and different trails. I got to play with the extremely nice photo kit that Christine has assembled for me year after year: lens, body, monopod, software. Results were some pleasant photos:

I am doing my bit to get us more rain - have been hanging laundry again. Now if you two would go out in the marshes without rain protection on the same days ... '-)

Seriously, the green-up wasn't noticeable. I wonder if there will be spring flowers in any abundance....
