Spent a couple of hours at the Darby Creek Wetlands Friday morning. Highlights were:
Bald Eagle soaring over the wetland. Was fairly low over the fields north of where I was (just south of the grain bins).
By the time it got closer to me it was at a much higher altitude. I was able to get some pics. Based on a little
research it is a 3.5 to 4 year old bird.
3 Northern Harriers working the fields at numerous times.
2 Red Tail Hawks. Both were circling right overhead along with a Northern Harrier.
2 Lesser Yellowlegs
Several Eastern Meadowlarks
Dozens of Mallards and American Black Ducks
About a 100 or so Coots.
