Hello,
Yesterday afternoon at Prairie Oaks MP I saw a pretty good list of birds:
Ruddy Duck 4
Ring-necked Duck 8, all female
Scaup species 1, female
Bufflehead 1, female
Horned Grebe 4, incl. 1 breeding plumage
Pied-billed Grebe 2
Hooded Merganser - 4
Killdeer 8
Wilsons Snipe 1
Tree Swallow 2
Northern Flicker - 2
Brown Creeper 2
Golden-crowned Kinglet 8
Eastern Phoebe 1
Swamp Sparrow 2
Plus the usual Cardinals, Song Sparrows, Field Sparrows, Titmice,
Chickadees, R-b Woodpeckers, Downy Woodpeckers, Red-tailed Hawks, Turkey
Vultures, Goldfinches, Mourning Doves, R-w Blackbirds, and Starlings.
I listened carefully for Yellow-throated Warblers and Louisiana
Waterthrushes along the river where there are many sycamores, but heard
none.
Good birding and the best is yet to come.
