I don’t think so. Nice group photo.

I think it was Thursday morning, left the house, you could hear a ton more birds in the hood... migrations are underway, though the seasonal shore birds aren't quite back...

As usual , excellent pictures.

Watch for the male ruddies bills to turn blue.

Wading boot . With all due respect, flirting or territorial between males? Adult females don’t have the red slash. I’m always open to correction.
Often wrong, but never in doubt.
Regardless, great pics!

Scott you are correct, didn't even think to check! These Bros didn't exactly seem mad at one another, and if territorial fighting involves necking and dancing, well there definitely was some of that too...

Northern Shoveler, drake.

One more bunch of crane pictures from West Richland. Lousy shots really because the action was a long way off. The coyotes have been stalking the birds for several days at least.
