I personally have been obsessed with birds for almost as long as I can remember.  They quickly became one of my favorite things to photograph when I started photography here at GBHS, as honestly they’re quite difficult to capture.  They move fast and are unpredictable to an amateur birdwatcher like me.  However, during my recent trip to Capitol Park in Sacramento, I managed to capture shots that even I am proud of.  In these captions, I will be pulling information about the different bird species from the “Stokes Essential Pocket Guide to the Birds of North America” by Donald and Lillian Stokes for species information, and “Ornithography - An Illustrated Guide to Bird Lore & Symbolism” by Jessica Roux to go into the fascinating symbolism of these birds throughout different cultures of the world.  I hope you enjoy! (This is a scrub-jay that was following us around –he was a big showoff.)
