Sora's were very vocal today. My son Drew got a kick out of the sounds they were making. Of course we were on our Kyaks today for this one. I also had lots of Laughing Gulls today. Very acrobatic catching insects over the Marsh. I snapped this photograph at the insects last second of life. The Gull did a barrel roll flipping upside down after this bug.
