It doesn’t get better than this! Recent outing to the Sweetwater Wetlands Park was packed with birds, including the Limpkin above. (I saw more limpkin in one hour than I’ve seen elsewhere in my entire life!) [Gallery]
Here’s a stunning Anhinga drying his wings. (I think this is a young male just molting into adult plumage.)
There were many Blue-Winged Teal on their way north mixed in with the local gallinules.
And the real surprise, a pair of American Bittern! (It’s only one of the most cryptic birds in North America.)
There were about a dozen Sandhill Cranes moving about and trumpeting.
Many male Red-Winged Blackbirds were out defending their territories.
And finally one of my favorites, a Pied-Billed Grebe having a stretch.
