I saw several Killdeer and heard an American Woodcock - they must
have just arrived since my last walk there on Monday. Both were seen/heard
on the west side of the loop. The Red-Winged Blackbirds were making quite a
ruckus this morning - a week ago I counted 9 and on Monday I stopped
counting after 100. The area to the south-east of the wetland has the most
dense population. A male Cardinal was seen again in the northwest section of
the loop - I've seen him in that general area many times but not singing as
beautifully as he was today. The Red-tailed Hawk, which is often seen in
the north-east area, was very vocal this morning. Spring is in the air!
