Franklin’s Gull Hornsby
One of these things is not like the other…..Ok recent gulls class, what do you see here? From Hornsby earlier this week.
Baird’s Sandpiper
Speaking of sandpipers: here’s another one someone can ID.
Semipalmated vs Least
Here’s a comparison of Semipalmated with a Least. So I think we can see actual black legs here on this sandpiper. It’s a short-winged bird; wings are just atop tail. Bill is short and pretty straight. Overall coloration is fairly pale, not brown. Baird’s and Least are brown-hued birds. Both also have a chest coloration…
High Island Prep Grackles
And so it goes — Grackles are next. They’re actually fun on the Bolivar Peninsula!! (you’re on you own for females (ask the males)).
Herons & Egrets Feeding Behaviors
Finally, here are a couple of interesting feeding behaviors by Cattle and Snowy. (Cattle video is pretty dis-focused).
