After several minutes of this deep water foraging behavior, this White-faced Ibis made its way toward me into more shallow water Posed for a little while, and then began to preen I’m glad I took the time to visit Colusa National Wildlife Refuge on this day. You never know what you might see! Get yours today! Beautiful bird.

Western Screech-Owl ( Megascops kennicottii ) photos by Larry Jordan It’s been an interesting winter in my neck of the woods. I was able to find the Common Redpoll among the flock of Lesser Goldfinches and Savannah Sparrows. Personally, I’m waiting for the irruption of Snowy Owls to reach northern California!

Fish & Wildlife comes in response to a lawsuit brought by the Center for Biological Diversity. I guess I’m one of those pervs. Jennifer Clement Feb 28th, 2011 at 11:01 pm Did you want Woodcock?

Either way, it was a heck of a sight and another example of why Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge is the best place in New York City to see amazing wildlife spectacles. Larry Jordan Mar 17th, 2011 at 12:13 am Wow Corey, that must have been some sight to behold, and sound too! What a spectacle indeed.

The homeowner, Fred Jordan, has been hosting visiting birders who heard of the bird through word-of-mouth since November. Many thanks to Fred Jordan for being a wonderful host with great enthusiasm for his awesome avian visitor. Third of all, the bird that was first seen on 30 October is, as of this blog posting, STILL THERE!

Granted they fill similar niches, skulkers with glorious songs and devilish demeanors, but it’s a shame to see the name wren turned into one of those taxonomically useless terms like sparrow and bunting solely due to the globe-trotting of homesick British naturalists. It could be worse, though. House Wren , Troglodytes aedon.
