thursday:
checked out the loons at offat's ... they were very close to 61st near the
causeway
lafitte's cove: didn;t stay long but orchard oriole, black and white warbler
and louisiana waterthrush
sportsman: blue wing, green wing, black bellied, redhead, widgeon and
gadwalls ... a solo golden plover and a couple of fresh killdeer chicks ...
dunlins, marbled godwits occupying a dock ... solo common loon in gang's
bayou
texas city dike: one common loon on north side
in one of the fields on 8 mile rd i found this mystery bird
http://s1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff500/rporter314/Mystery%20Birds/
photo 1 shows a golden with mystery bird behind it for size comparison
photo 2 is a side view and photo 3 is a frontal
the black breast and white face has thrown me off ... i think it is in
transition but don't know if from light to dark or dark to light
also i think the photo labeled red throated i believe is a red throated
loon but i don;t know what the left hand loon is in the unidentified photo
any help would be appreciated .... thanks
