Cormorant with fresh caught fish
Great blue heron and I believe great egret (there are a mix of these and snowy egrets, but I think this was one of the larger)
Osprey on the hunt
Actually do not know what these two are! EDIT: My MIL says kingfishers, hard to capture, especially in pairs! Web search makes me think belted kingfishers.
Swan, of course
Laughing gull, I think. Just liked the framing

no shots of the blue jays, but we probably saw at least 75 in migration flights in less than an hour.

Really great profile!

we have never seen a GBH in this spot (mostly cormorants, seagulls, swans, ducks, geese), but perhaps it is just because it is really well camouflaged
