Beautiful pics of the American Avocets. I assume you shot those at Bolivar? How was the AA population there these days? I'm going down this weekend and hope to get some shots of them on Saturday/Sunday.

Great shots Duane. Good to see that the Reddish Egrets are back at Bolivar Flats. I haven't seen any there for a couple of months.
