birds and plants

It's raining. We went to a bird refuge by Davis and looked at birds. It was fun. We also looked at plants. There was mustard, radish, chamomile, vetch, and a big grain that turns red like amaranth.

As for birds, we saw red-winged blackbirds, regular blackbirds, starlings, egrets, a great blue heron, cormorants, ducks, coots, something I think was yellow-headed blackbirds, and something unknown (it had a body sort of like a big egret, but its coloring was browns).

It was fun to drive around in the rain. Then we tried to go to Davis to look around and buy some needed things at their co-op, but Davis was having some kind of huge Event. Many of the streets were closed, and we struggled for a while then gave up. I should try to look up what the heck was going on there.

Hmm, all I can find is that it's picnic day.
