Sunday afternoon I was enjoying the beautiful fall day and stopped by Otter Creek Marsh.
Best bird was a Krider's Red-tailed Hawk hunting from a telephone pole and then a large hay bale. Very majestic with a white head, light tail and very pale underneath. Other birds: Large flock of American White Pelicans overhead (120) Sandhill Cranes (6) Dark-eyed Junco (1 - FOS) Bill Tollefson Cedar Rapids --- 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.
