Crossbills & Moorhen: photos by Greg
Thought you might like to have these shots for the blog. The first two are the Crossbills that have been in the Long Branch area recently. I was lucky enough to get awesome views (both life birds for me) of the Red & White-winged at the same time, coming as close as 5 feet at one point! The other shot is of the Common Moorhen that has been seen recently at the Kearny Marsh. They are usually pretty shy but this one seems to become quite outgoing when walking on ice. Hope you like them.
