Wetlands Walk Sunday

It was overcast and threatening to drizzle on Sunday morning so we thought, "what a lovely day for a bike ride to the wetlands!"

Killdeer

Common Yellowthroat (aka "Zorro Warbler" due to cute mask)

Baby Tree Swallow checking us out.

As we were walking around one of the ponds we flushed out a Bittern, which neither of us had seen before. We also saw several Marsh Wrens (aka "Atari bird"). They are my new favorite bird -- they make sounds like 1980's arcade games. Very entertaining!
