A look out our back gate (to the north)

 

An impromptu pond in the agricultural field.

 

 

We got to practice our long distance waterfowl and shorebird identification without even leaving our park!

 

 

 

 

Blue-winged teal

Northern shovelers

Coots

Black-necked stilts

American avocets

Least sandpipers

Long-billed dowitchers (or stilt sandpipers; I can’t tell from that distance)

Lesser yellowlegs

Snowy egrets

Little blue heron
