Today is Saturday, April
23rd. We birded Waccamaw NWR where Swallow-tailed kites are the signature
bird this morning and headed north this afternoon to Wilmington, NC.
Lindsay was born here and we went by her old home, where she went to elementary
school, the church where she was baptized, the high school where her parents
met and the church where they were married, and her grandmother's house,
etc. Since we had no cell coverage Thursday or Friday night but do have
tonight, we need to catch up with photos from Savannah NWR on Thursday and The
Audubon Center at Beidler Forest on Friday, home of 2000 pairs of Prothonotary
Warblers. Hope you will understand?
1-2. Brown Thrashers
have the largest repertoire of songs of all North America birds and are able to
vocalize 3000 distinct songs.
3-5. Black-bellied
Whistling Ducks: they feed primarily on plant material and unlike most ducks,
they are nocturnal feeders.
6-11 and both movies.
Huge mixed flocks of Glossy Ibises and immature White Ibises along with Great
Egrets, Snowy Egrets, and a few Great Blue Herons
