Are these what you had in mind? They are the same picture, just 2 different crops. I'll probably go ahead and delete the first, darker set. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/550531821 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/550531831 MUCH better! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Incredible day! I got the Great Horned Owl lifer that hid from me on Monday. I also reported the first Gull-billed Tern observation in more than six years at the hotspot. In addition, I took some great photos. https://ebird.org/checklist/S132258948 Edited March 31 by dragon49 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiscalus quiscula Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 https://ebird.org/checklist/S132228621 It was around freezing but deceptively sunny. Lighting was harsh since it was around the middle of the day, but I almost froze my fingers off getting the robin shots. I'm pretty happy to have documented a wide range of robin poses. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Always excited to see a Sandhill Crane up close - https://ebird.org/checklist/S132318556 Decent number of species here for this time of day, and it was nice to finally get some good photos of Cedar Waxwings - https://ebird.org/checklist/S132323978 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon49 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 New hotspot for me. Other than some great American Kestrel photos, these trails were a bust. My fault for being there at a bad time of the day for birding, and I didn't know the place. I'll be back, but am in no rush: https://ebird.org/checklist/S132402244 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Cochrane Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Super windy but still nice to get out and see a few early spring migrants. https://ebird.org/checklist/S132506832 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon49 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I took it slow today, with the only goal in mind to get a county Wild Turkey lifer. The problem is that there aren't more than two, perhaps three in these trails, and it's a large area to cover, and I woke up far too late to give myself a good chance of finding one of the birds. I could have given myself a better chance by staying until dark, but I wanted to get on with my day, and these birds aren't going away anytime soon. I did, however, get an unexpected Northern Flicker lifer. I was getting sick of seeing these in my Needs Alert emails all the time: https://ebird.org/checklist/S132494537 https://ebird.org/checklist/S132512813 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
