Winter Birds on Fox River, Illinois (Jan. 2022)

Flock of Canadian geese enjoying the sunshine at McHenry Dam

A pair of mallards at Algonquin Dam

One of many soaring gulls at Carpentersville Dam

A juvenile bald eagle stretching his wings at West Dundee

Another juvenile taking a watching for fish in the river

An adult soaring over the river

Flapping his wings in flight

A trumpeter swan down river

A pair of mute swans, as well

A nice way to spend a cold winter afternoon
