Cattle have been in the area and so there will be small remaining pools from their hoof prints if rain does not come to the area soon just like last time.

Our 2020 drought taught me that any body of water, no matter how small, might host these “drought refugees” in dry years. The former should number at least a hundred thousand individuals each winter, while the latter should be present in the tens of thousands.

Several likely winter in the southern Amazon (where the forest and all of its incredible biodiversity is being steadily decimated and replaced with massive cattle farms) but according to migration data, even more may depend on the forests of the Gran Chaco in Paraguay and northern Argentina as well as related dry forest habitats in Bolivia.

There was the Botteri’s Sparrow giving a larger Canyon Towhee a piece of its mind, on my way into town: The reservoir itself was underwhelming, only offering me a collection of white Egrets (Cattle, Snowy and Great) and a single Great Blue Heron. This was my fourth and final FOY bird for the day. Brown-backed Solitaire.

The idea being that putting December and the 2020 year review in the same post may prove to be listing overload for some. This year you get two listy posts for the price of one. You lucky, lucky birders! So this is the list for the complete year and the December list can be seen here.

And yet, less than halfway through our 2020-2021 winter dry season, Lake Cuitzeo had essentially dried up. Each of the dark marks in this photo from August, 2018 was a duck. There were lots of gulls and terns in November of the same year, as well. But mostly, there was just lots and lots of water. They’re riding horses on my lake.

When I returned to the small dam where there had been so many Australian Wood Ducks earlier in the day I discovered that the eleven cows had been joined by two Cattle Egrets. There had been quite a few Cattle Egrets in the area until recently and so it was good to see them for the first time in 2020.
