I went to a Wetlands area one day & saw so many great things that the next day I went back & brought my boys with me. Here’s just a smattering of birds we saw over those two days.
Cedar Waxwing
I ♥ these birds. I think they’re gorgeous.
Tree Swallow
Belted Kingfisher
Horrible photo, but this is the first time I have ever seen a kingfisher.
Gadwall
Brown-headed Cowbird
Cinnamon Teal
Osprey & its nest
Blue Heron & a Mallard mama with her babies
5 Great Egrets flying in
I’m not positive, but I think this is a bald eagle in its 3rd year.

I love that the spring weather here has been nice enough to go on a few bird walks. My species goal for the year is now 70% complete.
