Sora teen-ager



As I was walking past the little pond below the sewage lagoons this morning, I noticed several tiny frogs leap into the water. Taking a closer look to to see if I could spot one, I startled a Sora that happened to be in the tall grass next to the path. It jumped out onto a clump of grass, and then scooted over to the reeds at the side of the pond. I had to be quick, but I managed to get a couple of fairly good shots before it disappeared into the reeds. I was really excited as it was a juvenile Sora, not a fully grown adult. I had seen two just recently, but wasn't able to get a shot of them.
