I was spurred to make a visit by Galen Stewart's report of a Tricolored
Heron. I arrive just before dusk and spent time scoping the wrong end of the
lake. Luckily I turned the corner just in time to see the bird lift off from
the shallows. All the egrets leave around this time to go roost for the night
so I am hopeful the Tricolored will return and hang out a while. Only my second
at my home park, the first was three years and five days ago (Thank you Ebird
records!).
As I was walking back to the car I spotted 3 Coopers Hawks in the same
tree... I am assuming these are the three Juvies from our nest here this
spring. One flew before I could get the scope on them, but the other two were
Juvies... or immatures,I haven't quite grasped the difference yet. Shore
yielded one Spotted Sandy. No ducks, piebilled, or coot on the water.
