Took the day off work, started with seeing a hummingbird at home getting nectar from the trees near my house, then I went for a 4.5 mile walk around Shoreline Park in Mountain View. Got a few interesting bird pictures- a hawk and crow doing mid-air battle and a hummingbird that gave me a 3 ft closeup! Click an image to make it larger.

Hawk at Palo Alto Baylands
I heard some screeching calls, and wandered down the bike path, and came upon a hawk in a tree. It posed for me there for a few minutes before flying much closer to where I was, and I was able to get some more close-ups. It definitely was interested in me!
