Alviso Marina - Don Edwards NWR, San Jose

Here are some photos of the area that I have taken many of the bird pictures. These photos were taken on different bike trips.
I've included a map of the area so you can get an idea of the "loop" that starts at a re-built county park; it is 9.5 miles long.

Dear Chris, Some nice compositions! I especially like the wildflowers and the flow of the muddy trail and the flowers and water. I'm glad the wetlands is being preserved instead of developed. Robin
