Fishing Creek Rec. Area 7/5/11
Little Blue Heron 1 adult (I think all my previous "fall" records in Pulaski
have been immature birds.)
Great Egret 1
7/6/11- I paddled up fishing Creek from the Rec. area. The Horseshoe Bend
area where there used to be shorebird habitat in fall before the dam work
began is grown over with willows and sycamore trees.
Highlights:
Greater Yellowlegs 1 (My first shorebird of the season besides Killdeer. The
lake was higher all spring than they'd been keeping it since the dam work
started. It has been drawn down about 20', so there's some decent shorebird
habitat out from the rec. area, right now. I don't think it will last long.
Great Egret 2
Osprey 1
