A sunny day, although the temperature at the refuge didn’t get above 25 all day. Very nice to be outside and sit in the sun.
It was Super Bowl Sunday, with not too many birders out. A few hunters in and out. Lots of Harriers and Red-winged blackbirds. Several kestrels. and just for fun, a couple of Bald eagles.
Here’s some shots from the day. enjoy!
Nothing like a singing Red-winged blackbird..
Northern shovelers hanging out together..
Several kestrels around, glad to see more of them..
Juvenile Red-tailed hawk..
Finally, a juvenile Black-crowned night heron..I’ve been looking for them all winter..
Good old Baldie! Only two of them showed up yesterday..
And the hunter..coyote in the grass..sat and watched two of them wander through this area..
