Joyce and I went to Montezuma Wildlife Refuge on Friday afternoon hoping to find a juvie PEFA named Baron but no such luck. We did however see many adult and juvie Bald Eagles flying and frolicking in the blue sky, Northern Harriers, 2 White Pelicans (rare around here) and my first pelicans of any kind. There were plenty of gulls, Canadian Geese, ducks and cormorants. A nice surprise was 3 Sandhill Cranes, many White Egrets and Great Blue Herons. And to end the day there was a hot air balloon to send us off with smiles!  happy

Nice album, MAK. And your tracking of the Bald Eagle in the video is to be envied! (I haven't figured out how to do that yet.) What a fine, birdy, day you and Joyce experienced. Maybe FlaDonna will see Baron at the migrating PEFA survey down there.  Wink  Will you be posting the White Pelicans on ebird?
