    A few more from today...

    These were shot at Heritage Park in Santa Fe Springs.

    #1 A boy playing frisbee. Used my sports mode for this shot.
    #2 A buttery sapping on an orange blossom.
    #3 Some sort of game hen that is permitted to freely roam the park.

    Nice shots Ray. I especially like the angle of the frisbee shot.
    Here's some info on your bird. Noisy guys, aren't they?

    Your bird is a Guinea fowl , originally from africa

    They make great guard birds( leary of strangers and LOUD) and are insectivores. Farmers, gardeners love them for those reasons.
