Birded Indianola area this beautiful morning including Magic Ridge, Magnolia
Beach and fields along Hwy 316 and counted 70 species. Best birds for me
included a Wood Stork in flooded field behind "Lebo's house", two lingering
Redheads, three Osprey, 10 shorebird species including a Whimbrel, two
Brown-Crested Flycatchers, a Seaside Sparrow, and five Painted Buntings. And a
Mockingbird imitating a Black Rail calling!!
