Good morning! Well spring (summer?!) has arrived finally! The warblers and orioles are singing, and the herons, egrets, and eagles are GORGING themselves on fish at the Refuge. If you haven't been- go ASAP! The Main Pool is being drawn-down for management purposes, and the carp are getting stranded. Shorebirds galore (including a Glossy and White-faced Ibis!), Sandhill Cranes (with colts!), Black Terns, and so much more to be seen this time of year. Whether you head out yourself, or join us for a tour, do yourself a favor and get out there and bird!
