This Thanksgiving, Dave and I spent most of the day at Crown Memorial State Beach in Alameda. It was a crisp, beautiful day and nice way to spend the day being thankful for each other and the beauty around us. The huge bird sanctuary is filled with hundreds, if not thousands, of birds. Although one of my best friend's since college is a bird watcher, I am not great at identifying them. I can confidently say I saw crows, pelicans, ducks, geese, pigeons, and seagulls. I'm pretty sure a chased an egret trying to capture it's elegant beauty and there were probably a half a dozen other birds that I couldn't name.
