Birds -- Yuba Pass and Sierra Valley, June 2009

I paid my annual visit to this area for bird photography June 22-26, 2009, staying at Buttes Resort in Sierra City and taking most of my pictures in the area of Yuba Pass summit. Additional photos from the visit are in a second gallery linked at the bottom of this one.
