Morningside Park is perfect for this, as long as you are birding by kayak. I arrived at the park right after sunrise to take advantage of the beautiful early morning light; for me, you cannot beat early morning light for beautiful photos. There was a misty fog on the surface of the lake that I also find appealing but difficult to translate into photos. I was pleased with the results, there were plenty of birds to shoot and the fall colors were reflecting off the water wonderfully.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1833\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1833\" style=\"width: 584px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/MG_1214.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1833\" alt=\"A pair of Ring-billed Gulls in the early morning mist.
