Sunset Staten Island Preserve, California

Frequently there are beautiful sunsets on The San Joaquin-Sacramento River Delta. I took this sunset from Staten Island Road while Canada geese and sandhill cranes were returning from feeding to their night refuge in flooded cornfields and other wetlands. The Delta is mostly flat with few or small trees so there is mostly an unobstructed view of the sky and sun. The flooded cornfields provide reflecting pools for the sunset colors.
