A beautiful morning and a low tide on the horizon, I set out early to re-visit Bunche Beach with the hopes of finding yet more species for my June Challenge.
A nice bunch - some Roseate Spoonbills and White Ibis - both species in Immature and Adult stages. |
Short-billed Dowitchers were heard and seen throughout the beach. |
Two Immature Roseates with a Snowy Egret. |
Short-billed Dowitchers feeding on the flats. |
A Willet - I've noticed how they started to appear in greater numbers over the course of the past few weeks. |
A Wilson Plover - check his pink legs and strong bill. |
The Roseates surely catches the attention, doesn't it? |
"I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine". |
A great spot for the Great Blue Heron to oversee what is going on. |
As I'm about to wrap up my morning, I notice that a group of people is heading out for a day of fishing - Have fun! |
The Semi-palmated Plover and |
the Wilson Plover wished me farewell. |
And then was greeted back home by the Great blue Heron as he swallowed his catch - not a bad birding day. My E-Bird List for today http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S18932693 |
I would say you had a pretty good birding day. Glad you had fun
