From Yellow-hooded Blackbirds to Purple and Common Gallinules , there are almost too many birds to focus on! While enjoying the family of Wattled Jacanas , a female Green Kingfisher flew in to an overhanging branch and sat there for several minutes. They are all free-flying and can choose to stay or leave as they please.

Taking advantage of my son, Desmond, having this past Friday off from school our small family decided to do a three-day trip somewhere. At the beach there were non stop Magnificent Frigatebirds overhead, Sandwich Terns and Royal Terns working the waves, and Brown Pelicans dropping in regularly. And that was about it for birds.

Sandhill Cranes calling somewhere on the south end of the lake, Western Grebes calling to one another, Canada Geese honking away noisily, and somewhere above me, Red-wing Blackbirds roosting in a pine tree called out, in their harsh gargling cry. This is one of several families of Western Grebes stayed out in the middle of the lake all day.

Brewer’s Blackbirds often joined the hordes of Red-winged Blackbirds flitting in and out of the taller grasses and few shrubs. We need to create bridges (and a very happy experience with a local ranching family led us to believe that this is possible). back to the birds.

Yellow-headed Blackbirds singing in the reeds allowed us to get an arm’s length away. Yellow-headed Blackbird was another lifer for me, and omnipresent. A Marsh Wren came out of hiding for us. Western Grebes just went about their daily diving, seemingly not minding our presence. The best, in my opinion, was saved for last.

The beech forests were dense, landscapes stunning, only that wind… Birds were hiding from it, too, with mostly t**s ( Coal , Long-tailed and Great ), a few thrushes ( Mistle , Song and Eurasian Blackbird ) and numerous Common Chaffinches showing. Among them are Dalmatian Pelicans , so big and lazy. Enough of the mountains.
