Barrow's Goldeneyes in flight
Hi all, It's been a while...this past weekend the weather cooperated and we have had some very low water levels in the Columbia River, which has allowed me to get a little closer and more importantly get the sun at my back to practice some flight photography. The Columbia River around Castlegar has a large winter population of Barrow's Goldeneyes which provided lots of practice, because unless they are really spooked, they tend to fly off in 1's 2's or 3's. Here is one of a pair shortly after liftoff...
