Swan Lake 10 Black Terns Least Bittern 4 Great Blue Heron Pied-billed Grebe Kingfisher Cormorant
Sand Point Many White Pelicans Many Gulls, mainly Ring-billed, I think 5 Black Terns standing in the shallow water, some immatures Egrets not IDed. Babcock Access Field full of Horned Larks(15-20), mostly immature Pectoral Sandpiper Solitary Sandpiper Nice flock of Eurasian Tree Sparrows, 12-15 maybe. A glimpse of 10 or so duck-like guys Saw some Great Egrets and some smaller egrets that I assumed were Snowy but now that I look in the book I see we are out of their range so next time I will look closer. Could have been Imm Little Blues or Cattle. -- Tim Fairfield --- Please contribute your sightings to our list; it is only as good as members make it! --- Birding channel recommendation for FRS/GMRS radio use: Primary selection; channel 5/0 , alternate selection; channel 6/0 --- This mailing list is sponsored by the Iowa Ornithologists' Union.
