Greetings All:
On Sunday evening (16 July) I herped Lynn County with Drew Harvey - from
7:20 until midnight!
All of the avian highlights came from our visit to Tahoka Lake and Tahoka
Lake Pasture with the lake kicking out 380 American Avocets, 2 Snowy
Plovers, 4 Long-billed Curlews, 360 small 'peeps', 40 Baird's Sandpipers,
and 120 Wilson's Phalaropes - and the pasture kicking out 1 Bell's Vireo, 2
Rock Wrens, 2 Common Yellowthroats, 7 Yellow-breasted Chats, and 1 male
Bronzed Cowbird.
The non-avian highlight of the evening: getting photographs of a wee,
little Great Plains Narrow-mouthed Toad: a species that is far more
frequently heard than seen.
