It was a weekend of birding by boat both kayak and pontoon. A RUDDY TURNSTONE
was the highlight on the exposed islands but shorebirds were seen arriving in
small numbers. Least, Pectoral,Solitary, Spotted and Stilt Sandpipers were
stopping at Blood River this morning.
DC Cormorant young were squawking for food from their nests and young Osprey
were watching the boats go by from their perch.
Birds of interest
Bald Eagle -5
Osprey - 8 (including 2 juvenile)
Wood Duck
Caspian tern
Purple Martins - the hundreds of juvenile birds in the cypress trees at Blood
River seem to have gone south on Saturday evening. Only a few birds remain
today.
