Thursday was a beautiful sunny day so the family went to the refuge. Molly enjoyed finding all the smells, and Diana and I enjoyed the birds.
Hawks are back - Harriers and Red-tailed along with some I have yet to identify. Lots of them though. Great Blue Herons were out, posing for photos. The Great White Pelicans were 'gulping' their way along. A few duck and pheasant hunters - the clouds were too high for most of the duck hunters.
Here's some photos from the time..
I needed some help from my friend Nikki at Hawkwatch to identify this Merlin..
Female Kingfisher - she turned so I could see her colors better! The male was around also.
The Pelicans gulping along.
GBH in the field..looking for voles I guess.
Toothy muskrat - caught it as we were leaving and stopped on the first bridge..
