Thanks to all who responded to my previous post requesting information and
advice regarding finding Yellow-headed Blackbirds during the Ottawa NWR auto
tours.

After a "leisurely" search during yesterday's auto tour my wife and I got
several short but spectacular looks at one male and one female from about
3:00 to 3:30 PM.

We saw the birds from the location of the two cottonwood trees right at the
auto tour stop 7 sign (north side of Moist Soil Unit 3, about .5 mile from
the final left turn). The birds were periodically flying up from a spot just
to the right of straight out from the two trees, and about 20 yards back
into the cattails.

Yes! Nemesis no more!

Ken
