Location: Sloughs WMA - Shorebird Unit/Pond Creek Marsh/Gentle Pond
Observation date: 10/23/09
Notes: I got a late start due to the rains. Tried to get some
birding done after the rain this morning.
Nice windy day. But the wind seemed to keep the birds out of sight
with all the leaves flying around.
The bean field in Wood Tract has now been harvested and water is being
pumped in again.
The corn field across 268 is still standing. I hope they get it out
soon, so water can again be pumped in there.
Huge mixed flock of Red-winged Blackbirds, Starlings, & Brown-headed
Cowbirds working over the dead sunflowers adjacent to Gentle Pond.
