Lake Mendsen Birds

Yes, I went back for yet another Yellow-headed Blackbird check. Might be the last. It seems it is really gone. No new reports and no new sightings by me.

Other birds are still there, though. Loads of Boat-tailed Grackles and a Double-crested Cormorant or two. Spotted a tern the other day.

Nice to see a Wood Stork prowling the edges of the small pond.



Along the other shore there lurked a Great-blue Heron.



Meanwhile, down in the duck weed, appropriately enough, was a female Mallard.



Nothing spectacular but still nice to wander among the wildlife.
