I have been trying to get photos of birds in front of the moon. I was hoping for swans or a bald eagle, but the only birds that wanted to participate were Canada Geese. And a big metal bird. (Tana Tesdall, 1/30 and 1/31)

A Trumpeter Swan stretches its wings in the late afternoon, shortly before flying off for dinner. (Tana Tesdall, 1/31/26)
This is likely the same sub-adult Bald Eagle that has been a frequent visitor to the park lately. (Tana Tesdall, 1/31/26)
The waterfowl, Canada Geese and Trumpeter Swans, are concentrated at an area off the bluff. Their movements, body heat, and wind help keep a small area of open water.
Note the immature Bald Eagle perched at the edge of the bluff.
