This is one of the spots in Delta Ponds where I watch the birds come and go. The water is higher than usual because of our recent rains. There used to be heron nests in the trees on the other side but they seem to have moved to other sites. I have seen hawks and eagles in those trees, and watched one recent year when the eagles tried to take over the heron's nests. The herons won. This is the color of winter in the ponds. Some of my photos are on the information sign in the foreground. The elevated walkway here goes out over the water for a short distance.
