Red-winged blackbirds were out in full force, rustling around in the reeds and making loud, screeching calls to find mates.
The scissor-tailed flycatchers are back for the summer. We love watching their acrobatics as they take to the sky in search of their next snack. This one posed on the wire for us.
One of my favorite parts of spring is new life...and this means baby ducks! We enjoyed watching these baby wood ducks explore.
We saw this kestrel perched on the power lines, scanning the ground for dinner.
The monk parakeets build their nests on these power line towers, so we avoided the mud and made our way toward their screeching calls. While watching from a distance, several decided that the standing water right next to us looked like a good place to get a drink.
They have to be the happiest looking birds I've ever seen.
As we headed back toward our car, this great egret was trying to hide in the brush. Sometimes I think they forget they're white!
