While picking up trash around Shoveler Pond at Anahuac NWR we were treated
to a Marsh Wren/Sora/other rail symphony at the south west corner of the
loop. Crabbers had left quite a mess so we spent quite a bit of time in
that location.
Added treats were Leopard Frogs squealing as the leapt into the water and 2
lazy gators supervising our efforts.
I neglected to list the single Double-crested Cormorant seen at the bridge
at the beginning of the loop. He's been there 2 days in a row now.
