We tried to beat the heat by arriving early. We left Mitchell Lake at
11:30am, the birds had their feathers fluffed for ventilation and looked as hot
as
we felt. We saw 10 shorebird species and a few birds that made us look
twice.

Great Egret
Snowy Egret

Mississippi Kite - 3
Bald Eagle - 1
Red-shouldered Hawk
