Another former military complex, the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Reserve has very few rocky mountains in it, but it does have two herds of American Bison , at least one Striped Skunk , a lot of deer and an amazing number of birds (278 species in eBird). Of course, we never saw it. Thanks Brad.

Black-chested snake Eagle with a snake at Matheniko Wildlife Reserve Eastern Uganda. The bird guides have not worked for over a year now, and of course being a young industry, most of the bird guides had invested in other alternative businesses.

If you want to know what happened on August 31, 1984, I can name at least one event: In the Padang-Sugihan Wildlife Reserve in South Sumatra province, a Large Frogmouth was mobbed by a Greater Racket-tailed Drongo, as described here. Of course, many people still know exactly what they did when this happened. Back to birds.

The west end of the lake has been designated as a Watchable Wildlife Reserve, with some nice walking trails and a couple of very nice hides built overlooking some varied waterways. Of course, as I focused on the Rock Wren , the Prairie Falcon flew back and directly over my head, again… no picture!
