Five people joined me for today's bird walk. We did Pintail Lake, and
highlights included an adult Gray Hawk near the visitor center,
continuing Redhead on Pintail 2 (good bird for this inland), and a
Ringed Kingfisher over Pintail 2. Didn't see the Fulvous
Whistling-Duck that was on Pintail 1 yesterday.
Walks are free with refuge admission, are offered daily and leave the
visitor center at 8:30 am.
