Birding the MCRRC Wednesday

August 14 Email:

“I had a fun time birding the wastewater facility on Wednesday.  The water in the big lagoons was kinda low and that is where I saw most of my birds.  Making my way around the lagoons I did see Bobolinks and Meadowlarks in the pokeweed and a few ducks in the water and on the rocks.  My Sandpiper variety was pretty good which included Semipalmated, Least, Pectoral, Spotted, Stilt, and White-rumped.  I was watching a juvenile and trying to determine if it was a White-rumped or Bairds when it gave me a peek.  I also got a high-five from a Stilt.  The photography was kinda tough as I was there mid-day with a hot overhead sun but I managed to get a few decent images.   All and all it was a pretty good day and I'm looking forward to my next visit.”
